    Ross Acres' Daily Thoughts and Happenings...

    Thoughts of the morning. I have switched to replacing my ducks' pool water in the morning. I feel like it's a little better than replacing it in the early afternoon, after work. They get fresh water first thing in the morning this way. I built a new pen for the boys since they are being...

    Ruffled feather chicks

    My chicks have very ruffled and ugly feathers. I’m thinking it could be a sun deficiency because here in las vegas, it is 100+ degrees about every day so I didn’t take them outside until they were two weeks old. I took them outside because I noticed their feathers were starting to get ugly. They...

    Pests eliminated -thanks to my hungry flock!

    Our neighborhood has historically had a problem with boxelder bugs aka boxelder beetles. Every year we had great swarms of them around the foundation of our house, living in the siding, and even getting into the house! We dislike poisons and artificial chemicals, and nothing of an organic...

    Ducks and Chickens co-existing

    I have no idea why I'm asking this, I don't intend on ever keeping ducks, but I do keep chickens :D They seem to share each other's space quite well. I was wondering: Do ducks, like chickens, have a pecking order for their species? Do ducks and chickens, when they exist in the same space, have...

    Chicken that never stops talking, even at night

    I got a hen that never stops clucking, and yesterday I put a camera in her coop and noticed she would cluck all night long. I don’t know how long she’s been doing that, but it doesn’t seem normal. She will fall asleep, and then wake up and start clucking. It isn’t the alarm call, it’s just a...
