I recently got two beautiful male bunnies one a new Zealand purebred broken brown mini Rex and a beautiful pure bred golden Satan angora boy, very fluffy! I've been researching them quite a bit and found that Satan angoras are very wanted for their fur and can be sold for a minumum of $80 to...

Welcome to BYC! You'll find many intelligent people along the way, thanks for joining us :)

I currently have four ducklings and because I'm so new I don't know anything about them in case of identifying them, and sexing them. (Everything else health wise, such as what they need isifine) As far as I know the yellow one is a Pekin? I have ideas for the other ones, but I can't be sure...

Oh i guess that would make sense if you haven't had ducks, ducks actually have extremely distinguished personalities! One of mine will come straight into my hand when I put it in with him, he has a close bond and understands that I helped him to survival, some or more calmer than others, and...

Yep! Unfortunately we had to switch him out to another one because once we left the two that were left alone one of them were showing strong amounts of agressive behavior. I know that they peck n all. But they could barely get to the food without being chased away, (it was the black one that was...

I myself don't handle my ducklings for "fun" I handle them so that when they are older they will not be skittish, or agressive when I need to move them. The only one I properly handled for comfort purposes was my sickly one, which I don't worry about anymore bc he's mostly better, handling for...

Hello all, so I posted here last night, and I thought I was just going to have that one post and leave. But I suppose this seems like a nice place to be educated and perhaps learn all there is to know about both Ducks and Chickens one day. As of currently, I have 4 healthy chicks, and 3 healthy...

I raise both ducks and chickens and I adore both of them, I do agree chickens are probably generally easier to take care of. I'm actually am a first time raiser, so only have chicks and ducklings as of now. However I'd like to point out you do not have to teach ducks to swim, they learn by...

I might have been holding them wrong, perhaps it was because they were wriggling so much! I'm working with them however and they seem to be doing alright. The good news is the little guy in this post is doing SO much better. We put some niacin in his water, and he's been doing very well eating...

What're you talking about my ducklings are CRAZY. Whenever I approach them they run away and freak out, they also tend to puke on us... It's just a stress thing. They mostly like being left alone. But I also have to hold them so they get used to us humans, they're always in the water tho they...

Alright, thanks for asking. The ducks doing pretty good as of now, he needs encouragement to eat and drink but we used niacin and he should get better hopefully. No mean to argue

There's 500 mg but it's just for him

Ducks enjoy water, the water was not cold. The duck chose to go in there by choice, this is natural behavior? He also sits in his food bowl it's just his personality. It actually helps him not having to move too far to get to his water and food bowl :)

I have a one week old yellow Pekin whos currently dying from splay leg. I'm getting him the niocin now but I need to know how much for just him, and how do I give it to him? Just break it into his water?

Question, how much niocin should I give to him hes only a little over a week old, and how should I give it to him? Just break it into the water?

Tysm for your concern! if things don't get better I'll feel free to give them a call to see what they think. He's not moving much right now, which concerns me. But he's a fighter I'm sure he can keep going for one more night

I'd like to thank you for informing me about niacin I'll be getting it tomorrow hopefully the little guy survives the night I'll continue helping him drink and eat.

Nope! In fact they are in 2 totally different coops. One of the chicks aren't very nice when it comes to newcomers found that out the hard way

No the chickens are completely separate one of the chickens won't let them in the same coop. Alright, so I'll look into that. But the other ducks appear to be fine on it? In fact they are quite energetic. The yellow one appears to be very chattery though. But he has trouble eating and drinking...
