Thank you guys. Yes they aren't only on chick feed Trefoil. It's a mixed flock so in one bowl (well actually 3) I mix layers feed and a scratch feed for all the older ducks and the laying hens and ducks then I provide 3 feeders with chick feed for the handful of chicks and ducklings that are...
Hi you guys I have a kind of urgent question I went to Cs this year and the speaker said medicated chick feed could be fed to ducklings so here is my q. I've always fed nonmedicated to my mix flock (assorment of ducks including Muscovys and chickens) well today my mom brought me food and bought...
@LisaLouHoo the whole family just adores. I was shocked he even has no issue being picked up and held, the kids just love him they called him ET cause they said he looked like an alien chicken lol. Thank you so much for him.
Some pictures of my youngest Muscovys, and the chicks my hubby brought home as a surprise to start rebuilding our chicken flock. Does anyone know of anyone still selling chicks?
Fence was welded wire that was attached to another piece if welded wire for the gait. It was ripped at the seam and pushed up dug under. There was no hole prior to incident it was in plain sight. He's never seemed to even notice the chickens and was fine with the ducks in the yard but I was...
Dog wentthrough 2 years of obedient classes showed him in our ag fair. The fence is only not staked down at the gait where it was ripped up and dug under, I've since rewired it. And that's why i only leave the birds out during the day and have locked stalls at night. We've never had a predator...
He was very guilty acting. Came from hiding in my daughter's doll house with tail between his legs and he was very wet and mucky, which could have came from sneaking under fence and running through all the duck water or if he didn't do it could have been caused from him just being a dog. He...
It's hard to think of emotionally replacing them but then when I think of my crazy flock it'll be harder physically to find all the ones we had. We had a barred rock, 4 Easter eggers, 2 light Brahmas, a black sex link, 2 buff orpingtons, An Isa brown those were all pullets about a month from...
I'm definitely going to have to fix the gate area. I had not worried much cause during the evening they're in locked all wood stalls and we didn't think we'd have much predators during day light periods and we haven't had any. The outside fence isn't flimsy however its a welded cattle wire 6 ft...
Not sure why that double posted :-/ I'm just absolutely devastated. They were more then just egg layers to me. I handled every bird daily if not more then once a day. When I was stressed or needed quiet time I'd just go hang out in there coop and they would all come over and coo when petted. He...
