    Fertile?

    I know it's a bad picture but wondering if someone could tell me if this is a fertile egg? If it is, does one of my hens need to be laying on the eggs all the time. Every time I go into the coop they aren't on the eggs.

    Introducing a hen to my chicks and ducklings

    Hello. I have 7 chicks and 6 ducks and am hoping to start putting them outside since the weather is nice. I did try and put my ducklings and chicks in the same brooder (big old dog crate) however the ducklings must have sat on them and got them all wet as they were on the edge of dying. They are...

    Moving chicks outside

    I'm in Ontario and lately it's been nice and hot out. I know it would be early just thought they might like the room. I think I might try it after the weekend since its supposed to be rainy and my man has to build the coop. Thanks for your inputs. I'm hoping they enjoy it out there so it's less...

    Moving chicks outside

    When is the earliest I can move my chicks outside? They are about a week old. I have ducklings as well that are about the same age and am wondering about them also. They are in bins in my downstairs bathroom and even with daily cleanings obviously they still have an odour. They are also starting...

    With the watering situation I put mine on top of a plastic container. Was so happy when I checked in them half an hour later and there was still water in the dish and the shaving weren't soaked.

    HELP BROKEN OR DISLOCATED FOOT

    I just went and checked on my ducklings (I have 6) and noticed that a couple of them have turned in legs. I just put them in the bath for the first time (they are about a week old and hope that's okay) will definitely be getting my boyfriend to get niacin. They are on chick starter feed. Is it...

    First time duck and chick owner

    Thank you. It's a good thing these things are cute cuz if its not one problem it's another. Now my chicks are starting to jump on top of their tub. I don't have any extra screen or anything to put on top. They are a week old today. Would it be too early to put them out in a coop with the...

    First time duck and chick owner
