Yea I keep posted. Rooster is really looking good, he is still limping but the tail is no longer down, it points up and he stands up straight. Tomorrow morning I will listen to him and hopefully finally hear his lovely voice.

here is Update: Rooster and chicks have mites, but not only scaled leg mites, but the real mites in my country called Tekuti. It is very common here and I needed to use some powder on them. I did dust them and now rooster is mobile and chicks look better. This all makes sense because rooster...

Yea I was testing to place food on the roof, but only rooster was able to get there. The chicks IMO are too old and probably not in the best shape since they were 2 years inside the farm factory and now they are in my backyard for another 2 years, so they are already like 4 years old. Rooster is...

I don't collect eggs, they are laying eggs even at this winter time I have seen egg here and there and ducks are laying eggs too, but somebody eats them (dogs, lol). But I have also seen the chicks eating the duck's egg. I am feeding them cooked grains, beans, rise very often, potatoes...

Yes, the main problem is a broken spur. I did not do anything yet with him because it is too damn cold and I have no warm place for him. He is doing OK, he is in one of the dens he picked for himself which is BTW not the HEN house which the chickens picked (in the hen house they raised boards...

I have problems getting a Epson Salt because here you need perscription for that and I dont know why. But I am working on it. Meanwhile pelase take a look at updated pictures: This leg is missing that huge nail. HDR Pic on better leg with nail, but I wanted to show you that weird colors on...

Yea, thats my weird theory because I see some sheep wool on the missing nail, so I am thinking maybe his nail got caught in sheeps wool somehow. But the other leg with mites seems to be a bigger problem.

Ok thanks I will do it tomorrow. Do you maybe have more info how much water and how much salt to put in the water?

OMG I have seen the other topic with that disease. Do I repeat treatment once per day? Can the rooster be in the backyard or I need to place him somewhere to be alone?

Hmm, do you want me to create direct pictures in the post? That will be then long post, or maybe I should create album?

https://photos.app.goo.gl/AaW9wQUE8bAfs4DE6 This leg is pulled up and my rooster is standing on the other leg which looks worse IMO. https://photos.app.goo.gl/kLArpeCGKKPGcyq18 Problematic Leg: https://photos.app.goo.gl/vXLTMiNxja3DvPLu8 Other leg: https://photos.app.goo.gl/eUcbM1583UjmPMKr5...

How long will they seat on eggs if they are not fertile? I mean if there is no male in my backyard then those eggs cant be fertile. And now i know at least 3 of 4 ducks are females and the last one does not look like male to me, but i was wrong before with this kind of estimations. So for how...

I see, so i can be sure that out of 4 i have 3 females? 1 is seating on eggs, that big duck for which i m 100% sure is female and the one on who did she hump. So best case scenario is i have 1 male Indian runner duck, worst case scenario my backyard is packed with female ducks and no new babies...

Isnt that mating? It appeared like the bottom duck take a position so the big duck can easy get on her and that weird humping. And i m 1000% sure big duck is female because she was seating on the eggs 2 times and if she was seating then she probably lay them too?

Is this possible? I am going crazy over here. My male duck or at least i have think this duck is male is now seating on the eggs. OK, no problem, i probably made a mistake. BUT My biggest duck, and I only have 4 of them, 2 Indian runners, one Sweddish small duck and one BIG duck. I am...

This is a crime scene of my. You see, like some heavy fight was going on. What could do that? Bird predator, wild predator or neigbors hungry dog?

Yes, you may be right. Hawk may do it. But can Falcon do it too? Falcons are smaller. I dotn have problem if bird predator attacked my ducks, but if it was dog, fox, weasel or martens then i m afraid because those predators willr eturn and they may eat all. And dog, if it was dog i m afraid he...

I m from Croatia. That is easter Europe. We have https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_pine_marten this predators that attack bchicken and ducks ina rea. But will this predator leave such a mess. He left a huge mess. And this marten predator i never saw in my life. So i think it is rare in...

I lost one duck few days ago and other was damaged, but will survive. Like i already say i have the ducks free to move in big backyard that is somehow growing on it own, bushes, big grass and stuff like that, so lots of palce for them to hide. But the duck that got killed was killed in same...

But how do i remove ducks from the nest? I rarely touch this ducks. In fact i never touch them.
