    How old are these ducks??

    Hi I got these baby ducks a few days ago at a flea market and I never found out how old they were. I don’t know if they are siblings or are from two different ducks because one is a lot bigger than the other but any input would be helpful!

    What Beed and Gender is This 4 Month Old

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone would like to tell me the breed and gender of my 4 month old chicken. I think she is a girl, but I don't know the breed and when she will stop growing. She is tiny for her age and is that due to her breed? Or something else? Please let me know asap. Thanks:wee
