    Is A Wooded Lot a Good Place To Have Free Range Chickens?

    You can probably get away with that if you have good dogs to keep critters away even so you have to be careful for owls and hawks

    I've been wanting to do fermented feed, but haven't had any luck finding a good recipe. Plus where do you get unpasteurized ACV?

    Post Phoenix Pics Please

    I'm curious on what is the best feed choice for phoenix chickens? I heard they need extra protein for tail growth and was wondering what percent would be appropriate.

    cayuga duck thread

    I'm also worried about one of them. Her/his tail points towards the side. Idk if she/he is holding it that way or if there is something wrong. Plus she/he has trouble holding her wings beside the body. She/he can hold them how they're supposed to be but they're almost always hanging out. I...

    cayuga duck thread

    I have 6 that are 9 or 10 weeks old. I sit out and watch them play constantly but I only hear one that sounds like "he" has a cold. The others sound like my Abigail (adult pekin). I'm just finding it hard to believe I could've gotten that lucky.

    Cochin Thread!!!

    Those differences where true on mine. I bought 5 at a week old & knew I had 2 pullets & 2 roos before they was two weeks. That 5th one was the sneeky one & he looked like a pullet but in another couple days he looked like a lil roo.

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Thank you so much. They're all doing great. And although the 8th one was introduced over 12 hrs after the others hatched they took to it easily by cleaning its fuzz! Lol it was pretty funny. Poor little guy didn't know what to think at first. Now they're all happy lil puff balls!

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Here they are! 7 perfect ducklings! I set these eggs from my Pekin pair (Ferdinand & Abigail). I set 10 eggs, 7 have hatched, 1 is still trying hard & 2 stopped developing :(. Breaks my heart that they was so close to hatch! Poor babies!

    Pekin Duck Club!

    I have no idea what I'm doing. I seeked help earlier on this thread. I kept my humidity as close to 50% during & on lockdown I bumped it to 70%. Which of course the chicks kept raising it for me :).

    My babies are hatching! I've got 5 out of 10 so far! They are perfect little things! Will post pics when they can come out!

    Not what I was told.

    I got them from a local guy that hatches his own. He does sell sussex. I don't know where he gets his eggs. I've just decided it doesn't matter to me because they are sweethearts. I of course can't keep all, but with the way they've been raised the others will make great pets for anybody. And...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Oh that's good to hear. I just couldn't believe they was already pipping. I've hatched quail so I know what u mean about suspense & waiting. It's nerve racking to me. The hardest part for me is making my husband leave them alone. I can usualky curb my enthusiasm by watching through the windows...

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Today is lockdown for my first batch off pekins. I went to move my second batch to another incubator and noticed a lot of my ducks are already pipping. The humidity dropped of course because I had opened the lid but I got it up for lockdown. Will they be okay? Its at 75%. Before hand it was...
