    Comment by 'keringordon' in article 'How Much Room Do Chickens Need?'

    I guess it's a good article I suppose. I was a beginner chicken owner 6 years ago and I learned a lot of things. What I do now is I pretend that I'm a chicken and I would like to live a happy life and that's how I base my chicken's lives. I have the hen's house in one area in the shade in a...

    Are these normal duckling feet?

    Are these normal duckling feet?

    my ducks live in my bathroom until they're old enough to go into a large dog Kenner kennel that has wire all around it so the toes can't get in and hurt the chicks. sometimes I put him back in the bathroom if I think it's going to be too hot or too cold or if I see ants or too many toads. I just...

    Can they get sunburnt?

    Ive been to Flagstaff it's nothing special. more people are moving to Phoenix right now than any other city in the country and it's ridiculous. In 20 years of water situation is going to be horrendous. Last year in my town they restricted farmers from getting any water so their fields lay...

    Can they get sunburnt?

    I had lived in Tampa for a few years and it got so humid but there was grass...and fireants and mosquitos the size of small helicopters. I left there because my second sister was moving there...and in my family Florida isnt big enough to hold three sisters. Now one lives in Fla, one lives in NJ...

    Can they get sunburnt?

    Yeah my babies are family. I kept the bandages on for 2 days and I took them off yesterday he has a bump on one foot but I don't want to keep the bandages on too long.

    Can they get sunburnt?

    Well because he owned the biggest duck farm in the world that's what they do they sell ducks for people to eat. He didn't have geese but I do and its horrible how they are treated when their feathers are pulled out if them. They do the same to rabbits for their angoras and their screams are...

    Too hot to gather & eat eggs?

    I forgot to add that fireants are going nuts this year. Ive talked to people that have lost all their chickens to them. I tried diatomeous earth like I do every year but its not doing anything at all. I got some boric acid that is only slightly toxic to them and there were less ants. You have to...

    Can they get sunburnt?

    I'm not sure if you're referring to my post or the one above it. I know what caused the burns on my ducks feet its the sun. My ducks are not caged up. He looked much better today than they did last time and they're healing up nicely although it's going to take a couple more weeks to get them...

    Can they get sunburnt?

    Yes Im well aware of all of this. I used prescription antibiotics plus oral antibiotics I get when I go to Mexico. I have a large stash of medicines. They have shade and I have three groups of ducks and four groups of chickens. Most of the hens are in the fenced corral but if they try as hard as...

    I've never heard of a duck's feet getting sunburned but my Pekin ducks feet turn brown. initially he was getting antibiotics every day and getting antibiotics rubbed on his feet but I had to put some other chickens in the kennel and put them back with the others. Its been about 5 days and I'm...

    Are these normal duckling feet?

    These are ducklings not hamsters they can't live in the cage like that. It's like you living in a closet it's not doable. I just rescued three ducklings from next door that were living in a guinea pig cage and they were going to die shortly mainly because they were feeding it medicated chick...

    You probably shouldnt have a dog...if you are.....I dont even know the word. I suppose you would feed a baby bleach since you cant believe anything you read or is common sense.
