    Thank you! It took me forever to find a cute theme lol! As for the ducks they are on pine bedding, and its been really warm out lately, and I have a smart thermometer out there so if it drops below 70F I get alerted so I can turn the heat light on, as for us we do live semi close to the city but...

    Pls help, my ducks won't shut up

    Okay. I've tried a lot of things to keep my two girls quiet. I've been working with them to try and train them that quiet behavior is good, I reward them when they're quiet, and ignore them when they aren't. My issue is, they recently decided to say screw the training we will be honking all day...

    Hiya! Complete noob to the chicken/duck life!

    We came very close to that point, woke up with our rug smoking after it fell off lmfao but no floor damage thankfully due to the concrete! Any suggestions for a good brooder plate? I got a crappy one I think, my ducks avoid it like it's the spawn of the devil 🤣🤣

    Rescuing ducks and adopting adults???

    Ive never heard of a fowl first aid kit and now I need one before I move them out to their coop in a few weeks! Does someone sell full kits or do I need to buy individual things? I'd love to know, thank you!

    How to keep chicks warm without lamp or brooding plates?? Please help

    So they absolutely adored the dimming light! They didn't panic with it but stayed in the corner near where I had an old night light set up for them. They still refuse to touch the brooder plate but here's where it gets interesting! There's a big hole where they all started nesting together near...

    Hiya! Complete noob to the chicken/duck life!

    Unfortunately we learned this the hard way on our first night of having them 😭 I'm pretty sure the guy I spoke to at tractor supply had no idea what he was doing when I was asking him questions because he said they would be fine with just the clamp and woke up halfway through the night to the...

    How to keep chicks warm without lamp or brooding plates?? Please help

    According to professor Google, they are pretty cold hardy, especially their specific breed which I'm happy to learn! So the ducklings should be alright. As for chicks, I'm trying my best with that, I've tried showing them where it is, making it enticing by adding food over to it, and ensuring...

    How to keep chicks warm without lamp or brooding plates?? Please help

    My current thermometer read is about 74F in the bathroom, and I tried the hanging method (cried to my husband until he installed hooks around 2 pm today and everything pretty just to appease me lol) and they stillll hated it. The only thing they *barely* tolerate is the space heater going which...

    How to keep chicks warm without lamp or brooding plates?? Please help

    Okay so I have two chicks (3 weeks old) and two (1 week old) ducklings. We got them Thursday, set up a temp brooder in the garage with a heat lamp, and woke up to the smell of burning rug when the lamp fell off and tried to start a fire after God knows how long it sat there. When I came in, the...
