Cool. I was doing 1 tsp to every gallon. I will increase the dose. I have 1 week old ducklings with them, will it hurt them or should i seperate her?
Can I give her sugar water? How much? Thanks:/
Can someone tell me about tetramycin? I had my birds on it as a precaution....long story. But about 4 days ago my son dropped one of our mallard ducklings- about 5 weeks old now. She fell about 3 feet into her pond....not gracefully either. Since then she seems to have less energy, and breaths...
I will have to wait and see then, its not really that I wanted egg production but for pets, hens for my sweet roo. Thats all. I figured they were cornish x. I will see how they are doing in a couple months.
My banty just hatched two, we dont have a banty roo anymore so I wasnt sure what to expect. Well now they are going on 4 weeks old. I figure that the daddy is my white rock. They will probably be medium sized but for now they are the same size as my 2 week old standard chicks. I will try to post...
Mine look just like yours. Yes he only raised mallards I guess. I guess Im just supposed to do it while they dont have that oil gland thing. I wonder when they develop that?
Mine are just about 4 weeks also and they too are all just brown.
I also was wondering, my father in law used to raise mallards for years and he has been making me put vasoline over there ears "to keep the mites out" once a week. He said he had lost two flocks from this and learned his lesson...
Thank you, I just dont know what I'm doing wrong. Everything else is fine- an old farmer I know said that maybe they are being handled too much and I should leave them all be.
Can someone tell me what to expect when my ducks start feathering out? They are about 3 weeks old and have begun to get some feathers, but they all look the same- I thouhgt I would be able to tell them apart when they started. Someone told me that they all look the same for awhile then the males...
I had five toulouse goslings, they are 2 weeks old, they were doing fine but in the last 48 hours I have lost three. They get weak and seperate themselves from the rest and then die. All this happens rather quickly. Their is a small chance they got medicated feed but Im not sure about that...
My goslings and ducklings may have eaten medicated feed, I am not 100% on this but I have lost three now. Is their something I can do? Or is it hopeless? They may have been eating it for a few days before I realized it.
I thought about that because usually they write on the bag "non-med chick starter" and that wasnt on this bag, I went immediatley and got a new bag but what about the others? Is their any hope that they will survive? They are acting fine so far. Also, the bunnies are only about 4 weeks old and...
I had five two week old goslings in with some ducklings, and chicks, today we found two dead in the corner? Why would this have happened? They were all doing fine. Do I need to worry about more dying? We have two baby rabbits that are hanging out in there for the time being until we build them a...
