    Do I have a broody duck? Is there a possibility of it??

    My ducks have two nests. The one mama duck didn't start nesting until she was done laying. If they are brooding, you will notice a lot of eggs in a few days. They usually don't start sitting on the eggs until they have laid the whole clutch. It took my mama duck about four or five days. Last...

    Baby Rooster

    This is the little guy. He came home Feb 6th. Was one of the three our daughter gave to my husband as a birthday gift. Not sure what breed he is. He still has the little man complex, so we spoil him and keep him from direct contact with the rest of the flock. He is very sweet to humans still...

    My bad Beagle ate an egg or more

    As much as I hated to, I fenced off an area for my laying hens and ducks. The hens still fly over to roost at night, but they have been pretty good about keeping the eggs in the fenced area. Marley is a good girl when it comes to the chickens and ducks, just not the eggs she would eat them whole...

    Baby Rooster

    Thank you. For now we have him in his own area away from all the little chicks. He can see my hens and ducks. Going to see how well he does when he gets older. I don't want to see him become dinner. I could do that myself.

    Baby Rooster

    Thanks! My mom tells me this too I am the 4th generation with chickens. I just suck at using the proper terms when it comes to my chicks. Not sure if this new bunch has any other roosters. I have a mix this time around. I have most of the breeds figured out. I think the one baby rooster I am...

    Baby Rooster

    I have him in his own area now. He is the same age as the others he was with. He does have some hens to interact with in his new area. They can see him but not get to him. He isn't big enough to let out into the other area with the hens. Thank you for the help. I hope the separation helps. He is...

    Baby Rooster

    I have a baby rooster in my newest additions. He is sweet with humans, but picks on almost all the other chicks. He is about one month old. Not sure of his breed, he was in a mix of chicks at the store, hatchery choice. Any ideas on how to get him to calm down a little. I hate to give him away...

    My bad Beagle ate an egg or more

    Marley is 100% better. The duck eggs I had under the heat lamp ended up being duds. My chickens and ducks officially hate Marley and peck her head anytime she is close to them she hasn't learned how to leave the eggs alone yet, but we are working on it. She is improving with the chickens showing...

    My bad Beagle ate an egg or more

    I am sure Marley is sick from eggs. She is a bad girl and this isn't the first time she has ate them and got sick. She can't eat cooked eggs without getting sick. I had an overload of eggs and learned she cant have anything with eggs after she got sick a few times. I am guessing she found the...

    Thank you! I camdled the ones under the heat lamp tonight. I see one clearly has a white spot, the other one I think may be a dud. The one Catwoman lays on are only one and two days old. I am not sure I want to disturb at the moment. I am looking into incubators, but I am totally lost on which...

    My bad Beagle ate an egg or more

    Thank you for the advice! My chickens only like their coops to sleep. They have their spots they like to lay, but it changes all the time. We are in the area for another few months. So, I don't force them to go anywhere at the moment, other than the little ones we just got. We had 19 babies...
