I was trying to find one to add to my post but ran out of time. I just dug one up off my facebook from last summer. I guess he does look overweight in this photo, but he's really not. I can feel his bones, he just has a lot of skin :D
I am wondering the best way to keep my rabbits bottom clean. Here's the story.
My Benny Bunny is 8 years old. He lives outdoors, spends his daylight hours hopping around our fenced duck run which is in a very large wooded area with lots of trees and shaded areas, branches to nibble and leaves...
1 have 4, 5 week old Ancona ducks for sale. Sexing by voice, I am almost certain that 3 are female, 1 is male. They were purchased from Six Feathers Farm in Charlotte MI and listed as 1 chocolate, 2 lilac, and one Silver. $50 for all 4, or $15 for each female and $10 for the male. I will not...
I have always given my ducks their meal worm treat at night so they are almost always waiting near our outside door for me to come out and put them to bed. We too are in a wooded area and my biggest worry is a coyote or a dog. We have had some opossum and raccoon come around near the day when...
Looking for advice. We have a 3 day old duckling with a bit of shell stuck on the side of it's head. We noticed it after we returned home from purchasing it and 5 others. I contacted the seller who said this is common and we should pick it off. However, it looks very attached and I'm concerned I...
Is this for unsupervised water play in their brooder? I don't think there is any container that keeps the water in, ha!! I find a glass 9x13 baking dish works rather well. They can't tip it over anyway, and it's enough water for them to play in. For supervised short swim times, we just use the...
I have been wondering about this too. Our drake isn't being aggressive, just plain ole mean to one of our three girls. He won't let her get by the rest of them so she spends her days all alone. They free range and so she has tons of space and isn't being cornered, but we just feel sad for her...
I just started selling them recently too. I have used facebook's Marketplace and have steady inquiries and always have a small line up of people waiting. I did have someone request to buy 3 dozen and said he would pick them up when I had all of them. It took me 2 weeks to gather 3 dozen as I...
Thank you; still hoping for another answer. Fencing the ducks isn't an option, we enjoy them free ranging too much and since that is what they have been doing all along, I think they would go crazy! I also can't fence my plants, way too many separate areas. Unless maybe there is some kind of...
Any tips on safe products to keep my ducks from eating all my landscaping? I haven't done a search yet, thought I would ask here first. We have 4 free range ducks and they are eating everything I try to plant or perennials I had before them. I really love my ducks but I love my plants too!
Our 2 new Welsh ducks just hit 1 month old, I miss that cuteness! What adorable pics. I agree, these two seem extremely friendly compared to our Rouen, Buff, and Pekin we raised last year.
As with a large portion of our country right now, the forecast is not looking great for my ducks for the next week and they'll be on lock down in their coop to keep their feet from freezing. I hate making them stay in.
Is there anything fun I can make for them? Yes, I like to spoil them. My...
