hello my feathered friends! currently i am trying to figure out if there is any way to make my current chicken feed more nutritious, i feel like i’m not doing enough for my girlypops…
here is a pic of the current feed i am giving them! i usually buy from tractor supply from the next town over...
So I am hoping I don't find a dead duckling tomorrow morning. I was a bit late in feeding my 3 week old wild ducklings in our creek and they chugged it down too quickly. I am feeding game bird crumble dry because it seemed like wetting it made it more trouble to eat. One looked like it had food...
As the title says, do you like seafood???
For me, despite living in a seafood capital like New England, it’s a resounding NO. :hide
At least for most things. I like certain fish depending how it’s cooked and I like canned tuna but that’s it. :lau so basically no. Clams, oysters, shrimp...
I have looked at the mazuri ingredients and I do like that it has brewers yeast and the fish flakes etc. However the first ingredients are corn and soy and since it’s not non gmo I’m sure they are gmo and sprayed to hell with chemicals. I think he doesn’t believe in gmos or something ( the vet)...

We've been giving them: https://www.petbarn.com.au/peckish-performance-poultry-layer-mix-18kg

I have an outdoor enclosure for my dove. We've been having a TERRIBLE time with ants this year.
I saw in order to keep them out of my chicken's food, you're supposed to sprinkle cinnamon in the feeder! It's been working wonders.. however I'm not sure that cinnamon is safe to use around doves...
So I tried fermenting some grower feed for my chickens. It’s been a few days and I opened the lid to check on it to find that it smells very strongly, almost like cheese. It kind of smells like vomit. I’ve read that this means I should toss it, but the feed itself doesn’t look rancid or moldy to...
So my two Pekin ducks (pictured), Niles and Daphne, are about 11 weeks old. I have no reason to think they are unhealthy in any way but now that I've successfully kept them alive and happy and grown up I want to make sure I've got them eating properly.
Currently they get two handfuls of duck...
I have a turkey hen, 2 yrs old, beloved pet. She ate some of her favorite treat, shredded broccoli and carrots slaw, and she eats it so fast!
This morning she seemed to stop eating it quite suddenly, and hours later, after we returned from work, she is acting unwell.
She had a small lump right...
Hello everyone!

Hello,
I have a flock of 5 laying hens and one rooster. They are 10 weeks old and still on starter feed. But when they’re 18 weeks, I’m not sure what to switch them to. I’m under the impression laying hens require different nutrition than a rooster. Any recommendations?

I was wondering if feeding you can feed 4 week old call duckling cooked rice and sometimes millet, green peas, corn, eggs and kidney beans as their main diet?
Because I can’t find any duckling feed or brewers yeast.
If there’s not enough of vitamins B can I add some crushed human vitamins?
so i have chick grit, and i sprinkle it in their food container, how much should i be putting in? also i know that eventually the grit is separate, when do we move to bigger normal grit, and separate grit?
This is a question for all chicken owners, I‘m interested to know what type of food you all use?
I used to use crumble but it got very messy and I had to refill the food pipe (the feeder is a pvc pipe with a 45 degree attachment at the bottom) it was costing me a lot to feed only three...
Compatriots,
With the price of poultry feed skyrocketing its time for me to look into some less expensive options.
I have 5 acres and the poultry already free range, but the Iowa winters preclude free ranging approximately 4 months year.
I am looking for some advice on what I could grow that...
