We just recently our stall mats in as the flooring for the ducks and then a little hay for comfort. Then I can just spray it off! And the stall mat is comfortable on their feed.
The mink tunneled under the fencing and into the run, directly under their house. The run didn't not have hardwire underneath but the house did. It waited until the house door was open and came out from underneath. I wonder how long he harassed them underneath the house :( We tore that down...
Trying to post a pic of their old one. We had a roof on it. We had hardwire that went out a foot and then had cinderblocks on it to try and prevent digging and it still dug in. We had hard wire 4 feet up the sides as well.
We’re also moving the location. This one was to close to the wooded...
This is what it looks like- I get it Tuesday so I’ll take real pics then. I asked them to extend the roof to cover the entire thing and also expand the run area.Also asked them to hard wire the entire bottom as well. Plan on getting horse stall mats and cutting them to size for inside and floor...
Thank you ❤️ So devastated. Also glad I took the girls to the vet. Kylo, the one with the more significant injuries, was on the pond and we had to chase her in the canoe and net her to get her out and to the vet. Fml. They’re already doing better though and I dismantled the murder house and...
That’s what we’re trying to do right now! I put the live trap half in the water with a live trout in it. Nothing! We’ve put a muskrat- a trout- I need this thing dead!!!
If 2020 can’t get any worse, 4 of my 6 babies were killed by a freaking mink. Devastated. We still haven’t caught the lil bas**** either.
Anyways, the 2 babies that survived were also attacked- took them to the vet (which took 6 hours).
Kylo Hen has the most significant Injuries on her neck- and...
Yesterday, I woke up to a mink massacre of my babies. The mink killed two welsh harlequin girls and two mallard drakes. 😭 I am so sad. The mink injured my two khaki Campbell’s but so far they’ve survived.
I would like to get more ducks for Kylo Hen and Wampa so they’re not lonely. What do you...
Wrapping her causes her SO much stress. I’ve been mixing oatmeal into her food and hoping that lowering the protein will help. I’m going to continually check. Angel wing doesn’t cause any other damage right? It’s not a death sentence?
Is this okay?! This was the best I could do. She’s upset with me and is rolling all over trying to get it off and she’s panting like she’s in distress poor thing
I was doing handful but I’ll stop. And find different treats. I also bought oats to mix in their food to lower the protein. Today I’ll try to wrestle her to wrap it up. Oy!!
