Oh yeah, I hear ya!

Yep, I remember you telling me that. And that also makes sense about the WL and BO sized birds keeping fit following the runners around. But let me tell you one thing, Ralphie is quicker than the eye. Just while ago he was in the pool when I was going through the gate. Somehow he got out of that...

Well that is interesting and I’ll try that. My vice is out in the barn though, but I’ll see if I can’t produce some “hic-ker” nuts that way. They do taste very similar to pecans, but a little more bitter, maybe. Here is what is funny. My huge Sadie, a GP/GS mix, will lay in the yard, crack those...

I should have taken a pic of both of her feet for comparison. Her right foot (ankle) was definitely swollen almost twice the size of her left. The area circled even had a reddish tint underneath/in between the orange outer skin. And it was squishy, like there was a fluid filled sac in there. I...

It is funny to read, “Oh this bird is an a$$hole, but we love him anyway.” It’s kind of like some people I know, too! :lau Over this past weekend I took every opportunity to pick Ralphie Dux up (when he would run all around me) and hold him. I may have already said this — CRS is real — but one...

This is very good info too. Thank you so much for your help! I do appreciate every bit you’ve shared.

Well this post is definitely reassuring. Thank you! I guess most places have their own aggravations. And about those hickory nuts — I’m not sure how anyone would crack the darn things without pulverizing the nut. They can only be cracked with a hammer.

Where to begin. Oh yes, she laid another egg. It was a dramatic morning in how it all came about. Read about it Here. I posted it in My Love Affair With Ducks! I’m convinced Petey will be the center of attention no matter what. Diva Duck! Back before I had chicks mixed in with adult birds, I...

The aches and pains always have to happen to the “heavier” ones, huh? That’s just not fair, but probably explains why my hips and legs hurt. :lau :lau That video is a bit disturbing for me. I’m gonna have to research the whole trachea/esophagus layout in a duck before I’d try that. I can’t...

Thank you very much for this info, Isaac. I have had her caged in the house since Saturday afternoon. I’ve been doing everything you mentioned except for the medicine, which I do not have. (Except for meloxicam -for me- but I don’t know a dosage.) I am going to call the vet this morning and ask...

You and me both! I just can’t imagine what is wrong.

My 17 week old White Hybrid Layer did something to her leg last night, specifically her ankle. This morning she could not walk using her right leg. The ankle is very swollen and appears a bit red. Her right leg feels a bit warmer than her left. There is no bumblefoot, I could see no bite marks...
