    Special needs duck(ling) not doing well... Any thing I can do?

    I have a duck"ling" that has MANY special needs, she was born paralyzed in both her legs (she can walk now, not well, but she gets where she needs to go), her tongue is severely deformed, it's just a ball in the back of her mouth, she is pretty small for her age, and her feathers are not growing...

    Quarantine questions/scaly leg mites on rescue chicken.

    yes, I will try to get some pics of her legs tomorrow, it's getting dark over here and parents don't want her in the house yet so I won't be able to get good pictures right now. I know, I'm extremely impressed with her. We've tried to catch her in the past but she's way too fast and seems to be...

    Quarantine questions/scaly leg mites on rescue chicken.

    Ok, so we just rescued a chicken who had been dumped and living in the woods by herself for about a year. I know what I'm supposed to do regarding incorporation, taming, Etc... I just have 2 things I'm not too sure about: 1: I'm very glad she's safe, but I'm terrified that she might have some...

    dumped chicken rescue. advice wanted.

    She's home! She doesn't seem to be broody anymore (doesn't surprise me very much due to the massive change in scenery.), and she's a LOT more docile than I expected! i put my hand in her box, fully expecting her to peck me, freak out and run away, or both, but she just let me reach out and pet...

    dumped chicken rescue. advice wanted.

    I plan to quarantine her for 2-3 weeks if possible, and I've integrated single chickens before so I think I'm good there. I was more wondering how I should go about bringing her back, and if I should do anything special for her once she's here. Or if anyone has done something like this before...

    dumped chicken rescue. advice wanted.

    My great uncle had neighbors who had chickens, who moved away a while ago. When they moved, they left their chickens. Just let them out in the woods to fend for themselves. They tried to catch them but they're not friendly enough for them to even get close. Well, the chickens got picked off by...

    duckling hatch hiccup.

    I have a duckling hatching, and she should be all the way out of the egg but she's still attached to the last piece of the shell... is this normal? Should I just leave it alone? Can/should I try to take it off? (p.s. She has been like this since around 2:30.)

    House chicken! Any advice?

    Well the one that we know is that she's cross beak, but she seems to have some nurological/developmental issues too, we're not sure what, but she's growing up a lot slower than she should be

    Is it true you're not to feed chickens anything moldy?

    No, please please please do not feed them ANYTHING moldy or rancid. It'll make them sick. if it's about to go bad, but not moldy, that's fine, but if there's mold just toss it. you can feed your chickens just about anything, just not mold. I feel like this should be a no-brainer, but I had to...

    Also, I see a lot of people saying that cheese is a big no-no, but cheese is my birds absolute FAVORITE! They have it all the time, and are very healthy. No chicken diarrhea here

    Help! My wife is mad at me for feeding the chickens pizza!

    Dude, I literally just give my birds any leftovers that the fam isn't gonna eat. They get all of my "failed" kitchen experiments (failed as in the fam didn't like it lol, perfectly safe to eat, just tastes bad). the only reason my chickens don't eat pizza is because there's never any...

    Feeding my Hens and Drakes

    Great! Also, there will probably be a lot of people telling you that it's bad to have a 2-2 ratio of male/female ducks, but I have 2 'n 2 and they're fine together. It's good to have a backup plan just in case one of the boys gets too rowdy, but I haven't had any problems yet. May I ask what...
