    Other ideas for getting my duck to eat- including emeraid & Poultry Cell

    I don’t understand what you mean-but I just took an egg, separated out the white and put it in a small bowl. I added either water or electrolyte water, and then put it in a needless syringe. She did have a limit for that-she stopped eating the mixture after about half a syringe.

    Other ideas for getting my duck to eat- including emeraid & Poultry Cell

    Hey! I’ve done this with chickens, but not ducks. When one of my hens wasn’t eating, I mixed some egg yolk with electrolyte water and put it in a big syringe without a needle. I held her in one arm and dripped a little bit of the mixture onto her beak. She gobbled it up! I repeated twice daily...

    To Roo or not to Roo

    I don’t know-you’ll really have to wait. I have a Wyandotte that loved to attack and roost on me too, so it might be a personality thing.

    NEED HELP!! My hen is acting unusual!

    My girl had something similar. Soft shelled eggs can happen when a chicken is going in or out of laying, or in a stressful time. During a chicken show, I even had one lay two in a day-one regular and one soft-shelled. I would separate her from the flock, and put her in a temperature controlled...

    Chicken collection

    I wish I had circus chickens. That would be amazing. At least that is what I’ve been told. I had two before I rehomed one-but the other one seemes just fine. I didint think that they were threatened-I never really researched the breed.

    Do you read to your chickens?

    Hey! Weird question here. I’ve been reading to my chickens for a few years. I’m not sure if they understand, but it’s fun to spend time with them. So far I’ve read multiple Roald Dahl books to them (I will never be to old for him)

    Flea infestation?

    I’ve never had a flea infestation but I have had mites. I cleaned out the coop and run and dusted with food grade diatomaceous earth, although scone people say to use pethimatrim or something like that. It might be an insect that doesn’t parisitze on chickens, so at that point I wouldn’t treat...

    First winter with chickens

    I use shavings, give them access to extra feed, and have plywood around the bottom of the run to keep out snow and drafts. I did use hay/straw to insulate around the coop and the elk took over my backyard. So I don’t recommend doing that if you have elk in the area.

    Help with 2 year old hen, possible sour crop?

    I wouldn’t put her upside down again-it can be bad for them. i am not a sour crop expert. Hold her and like squeeze her crop and smell for a bad odor.
