    Cockatiels will not eat fruit or vegies since cagemate Sun Conure passed away

    Duck "swimming". on the ground, cannot stand

    I searched the forums last night, looking for advice. Saw numerous posts on, "Duck can't walk" and none of them were very encouraging. Yesterday evening one of my ducks was in the pool, while all the rest (9) were out of the pool and on the ground, ready to go, 'night night'. I walked over...

    The girls must be po'd

    Kind of funny actually. About 4 or 5 days ago, I quit giving my ducks water and food at night, when they are locked up in the coop. Even though I had their water bucket in a bottom half of a dog kennel, the hay would get soaking wet, and REAl poopy over night. They've started to not lay in...

    What size irrigation line to use, 3/4 or 1" ???

    Okay, for the last 2 years I've used soaker hose. Last year I had to purchase more soaker hose, hooking up sections of the older stuff to the newer stuff, different brands. It ended up watering unevenly. This year I plan on using irrigation hose, that black stuff you can insert nipples into...

    Why don't my 25 day old ducklings like to go outside?

    Hello all, I had my ducklings in a brooder in a coop. When they got too large for the brooder, I took it down and they had free run of the coop. I've been transporting them out to the garden, so I could keep an eye on them when I worked in the garden. Did that for about 4 or 5 days. Now...

    Never done rows in a garden before, How do you form them?

    Hello from the State of Jefferson!

    I've lurked for a bit and thought I might as well jump in. I've had back yard chickens since 94. Right now I have 4 Australorp hens, a hen that is a mix of some kind and a RIR rooster. I've decided that I want to try ducks! I saw all the recommendations/comments on Metzer Hatchery, so that...
