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
Hi
I have almost 10 week old silkie chicks, i think one is bearded and one non. I have read how difficult it is to sex them, wondered if anyone could give a guess based on photos? we were thinking one of each up until recently, now thinking 2 roos?

Hi lovely people!
My Muscovy duck is about to turn 7 weeks and while I’m 90% sure she’s a girl I figured I’d ask the experts just to be sure before I start training her to come when her name is called haha.
The reason I think she’s a girl is because when compared to the other one I had (who...
For farmyard and wild ducks alike, nesting typically occurs in early to mid-spring. Duck hens lay about a dozen or so eggs, which take nearly a month to hatch.
A mother duck sitting on her eggs is "brooding", and her collection of eggs -- and eventually ducklings -- is known as a brood...

Hi there experts! Need your opinions and advice! My duckling of 1.5weeks old (Indian runner duck) is making a small-like sound of a horn? The other two ducklings are still peeping they’re usual chirps but my black duckling started doing this noise maybe two dats ago? At first it sounded muffled...

Hello,
I have five male and two female call ducks and they are my babies!! However, my two females, mainly the youngest one (6mnths old) are 'calling' nearly all of the time, every 20/30 mins or so. At first I thought it was hilarious and cute (and I still do) but now I'm worried neighbours...
I have 4 ducks in my coop, one male and three females that are about 4 months old, and have been together since their hatching. I recently introduced them to 15 of my Road Island Hens and one Road Island rooster. I have two coops, one for the chickens, one for the ducks where I keep them at...

Hi, I have 7 indian runners and my drake constantly attacks this one old female that isn't so good on her feet and is just really frail in general. She always runs, sometimes they will mate and others he will sit on top of her then get off again or just peck her neck a lot to the point where she...
Hello! I'm new posting here, I usually just lurk in the forums. I do have some specific questions now that my ducks are older and I am 95% sure one of my ducks is a boy. I guess the other could be too, but I'm not sure. I'll post pictures in a moment.
Do I need to separate the ducks from the...
Can female black cayugas have some green on their wings? Because i have one that im sure is a female (she is very noisy and her quack sound definitely more female than male) but she has some green areas on her wings. Is this normal, or can males sound like females and talk alot as well?
Just wondering what the color of the comb of a blue silkie and white silkie is? I can’t pinpoint which one or two are crowing. But I think it’s the one with a black waddle and no comb. I have two with black waddles and one with red comb and waddle.
Hello, this is my first post and just wondering if anyone can tell me what gender my three ducks are. I think I have two female and a male because of their quacks but I’m not really sure! The two that I think are female are a little smaller than the one I think is a male. The one I think is a...

She paces...
