    Drake singled out

    Thank you, I’ll definitely work on another coop divider. This is my Pekin, Chelsea 😂 he doesn’t have much of a tail feather curl but one is a little lifted? Sounds like a drake, no honk.

    Drake singled out

    Oh, Morgan is also trying to mate with my Pekin which is super confusing. Is Morgan confused, or is my Pekin actually a female without a loud honk? lol

    Drake singled out

    I know this is a poorly balanced flock, and I’m working on fixing it: I have one Pekin drake, 4 Rowen Drakes and 1 Rowen hen. Only one drake (Morgan) is mating with the hen, so SHE is okay for now. My more urgent concern is that Morgan is aggressive with just one other drake (Abe) and he’s...

    Animal attack - help stop bleeding!!

    On his breast. I THINK I stopped the bleeding, sprayed with saline wound wash, and he’s back in the coop. The others won’t attack, will they?

    Animal attack - help stop bleeding!!

    I just brought my duck inside after an animal attack. He only has one spot that’s bleeding that I can find and it already started to clot. He came running to me when I started screaming and running through the woods to chase away the animal so he seems ok other than the bleeding. Any advice you...

    Bald spot? Baby feathers?

    Well wait, it it supposed to be a nub I’m able to grab onto or does that mean it’s clogged?

    Bald spot? Baby feathers?

    He’s using it! And it’s oily back there! Could the yellow just be from the amount of oil back there?

    Bald spot? Baby feathers?

    Wow, I had no idea that was back there. Definitely thought the oil came from their eyes. (Don’t judge me 🤦🏻‍♀️) I will be checking that first thing tomorrow! Thank you sooo much

    Open wounds from bullying! How should I treat this?

    Will do! I’ve been checking on them often, and they seem to be getting along well with the younger chicks. The little ones are snuggling up with them. They’re also pecking at the blood periodically but it doesn’t seem to be bothering the guineas. BUT the little ones are only a day old, so I...

    Open wounds from bullying! How should I treat this?

    These two Guineas were placed in a brooder with same-age chicks. Apparently the chicks realized they’re different and attacked. The bleeding had stopped before I got to the scene, but should I be cleaning the wounds or letting them heal on their own? I moved them in with the newest chick...

    Bald spot? Baby feathers?

    My Pekin has had this spot since her white feathers started coming in. It’s not really bald, it just seems like he still has baby feathers in that one spot. Is this problematic? It’s not bothering me if it doesn’t bother him. It doesn’t seem to be, but this guy also has issues with his legs so...

    Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

    Duck Attacked by wildlife. Open wound and loss of neck mobility. Please help!

    So... after some contemplation today, I’m trying to convince myself to put her down. She’s been in poor spirits all day long, and is now feeling bothered when I offer water, which wasn’t the case before. I’m also coming to terms with the fact that her neck mobility probably won’t come back and...

    Duck Attacked by wildlife. Open wound and loss of neck mobility. Please help!

    @Isaac 0 Thank you both! The closest avian vet is 2 hours away and they won’t talk to me without an appointment. I’m not sure having her in the car for that long is the best thing? Trying to figure this out at home, especially since she’s behaving so well. Today is day 5 and she took her...

    Duck Attacked by wildlife. Open wound and loss of neck mobility. Please help!

    My duck (about 2 months old) was attacked 4 days ago by wildlife. The back of her neck has been skinned with some bone and tendons exposed. Day 1: gently cleaned with water and hydrogen peroxide. Day 2: TSC gave me Nolvasan Scented Disinfectant to clean the wound after diluting (later realized...
