This is my first time owning chickens and I ended up with 3 roosters and 1 hen!!! This obviously will not work for me as we would like laying hens. They get along great and I would prefer not to separate them, but that's not a requirement. Maybe if anyone knows of a farm or any advice, as I...

My 5 year old rooster had bumblefoot years ago and pneumonia in 2015, and made it through those, though he was left with a sneeze. I moved him to the Florida panhandle and over the past several weeks I noticed his legs/ feet seem swollen and red, but it's always kind of looked like that.
Then...

Does anyone know if it’s legal to have ducks as pets in Bradenton, Florida? Or if you have to get any permits? I am hoping to get 2 Indian runners and 2 Peking ducks. No drakes.
