    Leeches in nose hole

    I have Muscovy ducklings, I know they aren’t chickens, and they have leeches in the nose holes! I put salt on them and they shrivelled all the way in their tiny beak holes! I don’t know what to do, I can see them moving in the hole. Poor duckling doesn’t seem to be doing good, it had blood...

    Coffee grounds for bedding?

    That’s funny! I did read about making sure to dry them thoroughly first! And as for the coffee habit I can’t stand the stuff so I don’t think that would be an issue for me! 😂 but I didn’t think about it staining the floor....🤔

    Coffee grounds for bedding?

    Pullet laid a soft egg and 4 days later no more eggs?

    I found the other pullets eating it, otherwise I would have never known someone laid an egg! I’ve raised them from a few days old so I’m so excited someone started laying but is it normal for days in between when they begin laying? I have an idea who it might be, one is 4 weeks older than the...
