    What in Ducky Heck is this!?

    Welp, it’s basically official. So long as she doesn’t re-injure the site/open up the wound before it finalized healing, OG and I are done with this saga. Vet looked at the scab that’s on it (the one left after she shluffed off the 1/2” thick scab and sutures) and says everything looks okay. She...

    What in Ducky Heck is this!?

    We’re at the vet for her (hopefully last) appointment. Her thick hard scab had fallen off a few weeks ago and it’s just the typical looking scab a person would have after falling off their bike or something. Other than her continued limp (which I will ask for an X-ray) she’s been doing great...

    Hey guys! I’m sorry I hadn’t updated in a bit... as you guys mentioned, there’s just SOOO much to do during this time of year. And that’s to say nothing of the fact we’re only in our first spring here on he homestead and are spending lots of time trying to reclaim the land. OG is doing very...

    Bedding in duck house?

    Hiya @onaharley ... curious if you allow water/food into the coop at night with your doodle brood? I’ve played around a teensy bit trying to find what works best for flick/me... I do full cleanout every Sunday where everything comes out and is hauled away and put down a fresh big bag of pine...

    Pics aren’t the greatest but here’s some updated pics on the little duckies (plus one of our pantyhosed Pekin) ❤️ The 4th photo (again, blerg) has little bit in the middle. She continues to be a dwarf in comparison but she *IS* growing. In fact, today I noticed her underbite has seemed to have...

    So far the hose has worked wonderfully. I have noticed that Patty has not attempted to mate OG and I’m attributing that to the panty hose. Whether it’s because OG can’t properly present herself with it on or maybe Patty is put off by the oddity of it, it’s worked for wings AND hump prevention...

    Wanted to acknowledge your absolutely valid and wonderful point. There’s quite a bit of ventilation between the coop walls and the roof but, ironically to your post, we intend to cut some smaller windows into the side (I’m thinking one or two each side). It will be covered with mesh on the...

    Thanks for all the positive OG support and compliments. It’s really made my day (so far) to be able to finish the coop and get the big girls in it. I confirmed that I don’t have to do the wipe and swipe treatment on OG so the only thing I’m supposed to stay focused on is keeping her wound dry...

    And! On top of the awesomeness that is OG’s existence, the duck coop has been completed and the girls are transitioning into it today! Here’s pics of the finished product where the coop ramp goes right down into the duck run and from there they are right in front of the pond. On days that they...

    None of the videos are long, I was battling less than 10% on my phone at the time. But just a few quick vids to see how the pantyhose works.

    Here we go guys, buckle your seatbelts because there’s gonna be some wild info incoming. At least to me it was. Had to have Grumpy pick poor baby up from vet because he was in Indy, I was back home taking kiddo to an appointment. So I had to have my post-op updates done via phone with the vet...

    What in Ducky Heck is this!?

    Alright, checkin was at 7. She is in their hands now. It’s just so funny because no sooner than the front desk worker took her back and put her in her cage, OG started in with the quacking. I’m filling out drop off paperwork and just laughing. This is the reputation she has there as it is LOL...

    Again, you guys are invaluable: if you hadn’t mentioned the coming apart, I would’ve completely forgotten about the whole errrr hole situation in pantyhose. See! Completely ruin a day with those things ;) Thank you for the pond compliments. I know compared to 50DucksinaHotub youtuber (for...

    Oh sweet mother of nature! I want to walk into my bathroom and see chickens hanging from towel bars and various perch-worthy places! That just warms my heart ❤️ I do think I’ll take your advice and sorta assume that if her midsection is as wide as my thigh, then to use the thigh part. It makes...

    Update on combined brooder:: So far, everything has gone swimmingly. There’s an occasional peck but I don’t believe it to be an actual pecking order gig (yet). Believe it or not, Little Bit is a turd LOL. When the four Turkeys are all sleeping in a row, Little Bit will walk on TOP of them in...

    Yeah I think that’s what I’m going to do. I haven’t taken them out but I also haven’t taken down their barrier yet. If anything becomes ‘too much’ then the wee littles go back behind the fence. Until one of them figures out how to escape again LOL Speaking of clock and pecking and what not. I...

    Awww and one of the Black Swedish (Oreo) must be their favorite. Oreo and the two Cayugas are always squished together laying somewhere. The other three turkeys are laying around the waterer where Oreo, and Little Bit and Bigger Bit are all snuggled under the heat lamp. Lord, they might think...
