    Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

    I used to squirt her with a squirt gun in the summer when she got bossy. It worked btw. Now i doubt that it would phase her. Ìt looks like i'll be posting an ad at the feed store. Although shes quite tame she has always had an wildish glint in her eye :(

    Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

    Now that you mention it I am assuming it is a hen because there have been three different colored eggs lol. Ive never seen one come out of her but she spends lots of time in there sitting. I always wondered about her though because her personality is so different than the other two. Just my luck...

    Hen got attacked by fox! Help!

    I am sooo not an expert but have done a lot of reading. Corn meal is supposed to stop bleeding. Clean her up somehow. If I was in your position right now I'd give her a warm bath and use some blue dawn dish soap because that's all I have on hand. Wrap her in a towel and sit with her in a safe...

    Please help! Duck beak ripped up

    Try canned corn. It's the only thing my drake would eat when he was chomped by raccoon. I took him to vet and got antibiotics and pain meds. I had to take him off the pain meds so he would eat. She needs to be inside so no flies get on her. Within two weeks his bill healed up completely Although...

    What should I do with a broody duck

    It's common for drakes to kill the male and sometimes female ducklings. Hens go off alone to do their nesting and motherly stuff. They want a peaceful spot. I read somewhere that it is safest to scoop them up and bring them in to a brooder light. Three days in a row , mom stood up and there was...

    severely cracked beak on chick (pics)

    My duck had his bill chomped and I took him to the vet for antibiotics . The vet didn't rinse him with anything. Eating was an issue for my duck. He would not eat baby food ,crumble , mash or worms. Canned corn saved the day. Rest and food , she'll be healed up in a few weeks.
