    Owl attacks

    So I’ve thought of that, cordless motion lights that are super bright! ...but those might be super sensitive and a moving tree branch might set it off every 5 seconds. That would drive me and my birds crazy

    Pekin Ducklings bellies always wet

    so your original question is the main reason I joined BYC because I am new to owning ducks and I simply can't keep my duckling's bellies dry. not to mention they smell like a mildewy towel its awful! but if its something that they will grow out of as they get older then that's great! we also...
