I have one that likes to escape and that's fine bc I never leave them unsupervised in it. They are just content to stay inside the box, once they are older I let the just go loose in the basement in the room they are kept in. Just wondering if it would hurt their legs at all.

It seems like you're giving them enough calcium, but maybe she needs more. I would make sure she's not cracking them. Are the yolks gone?

I have 8 chicks right now and getting them used to my hands (petting and holding). I will put them in a little play pen so it's easier to see them and for them to see me. I made it out of two old shoe boxes and am wondering if the lip in between the two is too big. They can get across it just...

Myducks have been fine all winter without a pond, but this is different. I wouldn't know about them trying to get to pond. I will warn you though I have had ducks attack chickens when being kept in the same enclosure. That might be stressing them out

This summer I am interested in building a pond with a duckponics system for cheap. What materials would I need to easily build this? And does it actually work? I currently have five Peking ducks and they make a mess in their kiddie pool. I want to get more ducks but need to find a better way to...

My ducks started to lay around seven to eight months of age. I would just give them a bit longer to adjust to their new home.

I've been told that Phoenix's tails need special care and housing Because of their tails

I am looking at getting an assortment of rare breeds from Murray McMurray Hatchery. One of the possible breeds could be a Phoenix. I would not have housing or the proper care tools for it if I got one. Would I still be able to take care of it or would I have to sell?

They have all those things. They have an old playhouse with roosts and nesting boxes, they also have an outside run with some roosts. It is protected by wind and rain. We were wondering if we could put straw bales along the one side that is completely open to black the wind. Could we? The...

Normally for the winter we put our chickens in a horse stall, but this year we have ducks that occupy their stall. We don't know what to do with the ducks and we've talked about leaving the chicken so outside. It can get pretty cold where we live and I'd be extremely worried if we left them...

If I were to show them in 4-h would breed would I out or should I wait to decide till their older and I Definitly know what breed they are. Also I looked on the one website and the one they mostly resembled was the Sikver chick

Ok

So I have a cross between a Americaunas and EE?

Yeah and some might be late some might be early

Thanks any information is helpful would they lay green or blue eggs either way

Here is more of what their backs look like

Thank you I don't care what breed they are I'm just wondering bc I show them for 4-h so I want to have the right breed written down.

Sometimes it can take twenty four hours for the chick to fully hatch! It's probably tired so give it some time. Best of luck!

I got these chicks from Runnings and was told they were Americaunas but most places I've read say they are Easter Eggers and not true Americaunas.
