So I have three ducks and three chickens. We are moving and i have to let my rooster go to a new home. Cant have him in city limits. My drake incessantly chases my little white easter egger hen. So i am gonna give her to the people taking my roo. Is it ok to keep my 1 hem with the ducks by her...
One of my two Ancona ducks laid her first egg on monday. There was another yesterday, and today nothing. I am really new at this. Monday was our first egg ever. 2 questions. 1) she has been laying overnight is that normal? 2) since there wasn't an egg today is that normal? Thanks please bear...
I have a trio of ancona ducks and a trio of chickens. All of them are around 15 to 17 weeks old. For some reason all of a sudden my drake is attacking my rooster all the time. They share a coop and run at night and free range my yard during the day. He doesn't seem to be hurting the roo just...
The first 3 chicks are silver laced Wyandottes. The first one interests me because of the color difference from the other two. The fourth is a new hampshire red. These 4 are around 5 to 6 weeks. The last 2 are EEs they are a little younger. It maybe to early for any of them but I am getting curious.
Yeah they have a do it sided house with an open door and a predator proof run is being completed this week. They are currently in my bathtub but its getting a little crowded and I think they need more space and entertainment.
At what age should I move my ducklings outside? They are around 5 weeks old and pretty much fully feathered. They have not had a heat lamp in a week and it is getting into the 70 s here. Is it okay to move them outside? Fully or only during the day etc?
Keeping them together. Hubby has designed a coop with poop boards for sleeping purposes. They will be free ranging the backyard during the day and locked in at night. We are building a swimming deck outside of coop and run to minimze the water in coop.
