I bought what I thought, and was told, was a LB hen. It wasn't until my husband heard her crow one morning, that we realized we have a roo on our hands... I still say She and Her when I talk about him.
These are all my lil feather babies, Daisy and Donald duck, the big Brahma BB, our beautiful Rooster Buddy and my sweet bantam Brahma Birts (no I didn't misspell Birds), it's the sound she makes when she's happy. I also have a Easter Egger named Red Chicken, just can't find a good pic of her.
I would definitely not feel comfortable doing that myself. Not to mention that Donald is a pretty big duck and hes not to keen on people touching him. lol
Honestly, i dont know if he has a chest wound, I was so happy he was alive and walking that i just let him be since he looked fine. i did notice that he cant flap one of his wings too well (he does try) but i figured he was just sore.
My neighbors dog got ahold of my male rouen (?) duck about a week ago. Luckily, the duck got away before tragedy struck. But now his chest is real swollen and when he quacks, no sound comes out. He walks around fine other than that. any help/ advice would be greatly appreciated!
