hi everyone!
This has been going on for awhile, but I think it’s time to address it properly...
We got Phoenix about a year ago. And the only problem he’s has is that he always has poop stuck on his vent and the surrounding feathers. He can still go to the bathroom, but when you clean it off of...
I wasn't sure where to post this, but do call ducks make good pets? Can they be kept in a 10ftx10ft or a 10ftx20ft pen? Trying to decide on a perfect breed

Thanks so much for all the replies! Here's a couple more questions.
My family thinks all ducks are mean, what's your experience with mean ducks, or have you had any?
If I got 2, what gender combinations are possible? Like 2 drakes, 2 hens, or a drake and a hen?
And, about how much time do...
I'm thinking about getting a couple pekins this spring, but all I get from family and friends are that all ducks do is eat and poop. Isn't that what all animals do ? So what are your favorite and least favorite things about owning ducks?

Here's some pics of my baby, Sonny. He's an extremely NOT-smooth Tennessee Walker
He used to be used in a 4-h drill team! But now that he's my horse, he's just my trail riding buddy. He turned 18 last week!

Today my beloved silky, Frost, died unexpectedly. Yesterday she was acting a bit lethargic but I thought it was just because it was cold. But this morning she was curled up in a nest box, dead.
We've lost 6 of our original 8. We had to re home one of them. 2 died from coccidiosis, 1 from...
Hi everyone! So my silkie hen, Frost, hasn't been acting herself. She's been acting like she's gagging and acting not as energetic as usual. She hasn't been eating much either. She's been gagging like this for a couple weeks but today she just seems out of it. Please help! I love this little...
So my dad has a couple of parakeets who had a chick, one single chick. He was hatched around February and I was planing on taking him home this summer. But just a couple of hours ago the mother parakeet,Sky, attacked the chick , who I've named Neon, he has an injury on the side of his head and...
Does anyone know why my polish frizzle hen isn't laying eggs? I have 2 other broody hens, is she being influenced by them? I checked her and I don't think she is egg bound.
And I also need help breaking their broodiness. Now they are both broody and I'm getting ZERO eggs. And I guess both of them being broody has made my frizzled polish has stopped laying too.
