They both have whispery voices. 😩😞

Awesome! And yours came sexed as females? What are the lighter colored ducks? They’re pretty!

Any updated guesses? They are 7 weeks old and still have their baby voices. They are slightly larger than my grown Khaki Campbells.

Just coming back to say that the flaked oyster shells have made all the difference!! They love them! I’ve started mixing in the pebble shaped shells to use it up and they seem to be eating those now too. Thanks for the suggestions!

Oh my word. No idea but you’re giving me a bad case of Silkie fever!! 😍

I’m getting ready to mix a new little batch of chicks and ducklings with my 1 year old flock. Every time I’ve switched my hens to grower feed instead of layer and offered oyster shells on the side, we have tons of problems with soft/no shells. My hens don’t seem to eat the oyster shells. They...

If I do this again, I will have to figure something out to keep the mama and babies separate from the rest of the flock. I think two of my chicks died from getting run over by a well-intentioned duck since they are on the coop floor as well. I currently have that tote on its side near the corner...

What does reintegration look like with this method?

I had to pen mine last year too after a very similar story. We slowly went from nearly 40 birds to 22 birds (various reasons but mostly predators). We did that months ago and I’m still so sad about it!! If I’m going to be out much of the evening, I will let them out a couple hours before...
