    How long to leave ducklings with them?

    In 2 weeks, ducklings will be hatching. I plan on selling them but I was hoping to keep them a few days to make sure that they're healthy enough to go to new homes. We have 3 chickens sitting on all duck eggs. Before anyone jumps at me for thinking of selling them, we have no room for any more...

I also have a noter cheap incubator thy I’m reluctant to use but does get up to temp? There are currently 6 duck eggs in there on day...

    Bumblefoot w/o scab, or something else?!

    Hi BYC Family! I went out this morning to let my ducks out for the day, and my khaki campbell girl was walking just (or so it seemed). Then, about ten minutes later after I came back from feeding our horses, she was severely limping, but still attempting to run with the rest of the flock. Her...

    KC/Cayuga Hatching Adventure

    I'll be buying 12 KC/Cayuga hatching eggs to put underneath our broody hen on Monday. The lady has both breed drakes with the ducks so I could have mostly mixed with possibly pure. Probably all mixed but it doesn't matter to me as I will be selling all ducklings a few days after they hatch...

    Duckie Cafe

    I love, love, love my ducks, but am not a fan of stinky, wet messes. The idea of having a feeding and water coop in the duck run rattled around in my mind for a few days. I know we don't have the room outside, so why not build a duck cafe inside? I waited almost a week to post these photos...

    Lonely duckling

    I’m on day 11 of a duck egg incubation and only one of my 6 eggs is developing :( . Does anyone have advice for brooding a single duckling. I also have 3 five week old ducklings but they are much much too big to be companions to a newly hatched. p.s this is my first time keepping ducks ever

    Help Sexing my Khaki Campbell

    I have read a few threads on here discussing sexing khaki Campbell ‘s. However I am still in sure based on the information I have read whether ours is a drake or a hen. I took some pictures of its tail. I think it’s a drake but I’m new to this and would like a second opinion. He is 3 1/2 weeks...

    Hatching process has begun!!

    I woke up 2 hours ago so I apologize if my wording isn't correct. Not sure when it actually started but when I went to lock up the birds for the night, I decided to check underneath Mouse to see how the egg was doing. While I was candling it, I saw the internal pip! I quickly but carefully...

    Duck behavior: Is my Khaki Campbell quacking up?

    Hello all! I've noticed a peculiar behavior recently by my khaki campbell hen. Sometimes she will just stand in the middle of their run and quack VERY LOUDLY and repeatedly for hours. All of the other ducks surround her, standing straight, when she does this and just look at her. Now, I've...

    Need to rehome 2 ducks in Raleigh, NC!

    Hi! My husband and I love animals and it saddens me to even have to do this, but we are looking into the possibility of re-homing our two ducks. I think they will be much happier in a home or on a farm with more ducks. I have one female Cayuga (named Pepper) and one male Khaki Campbell (named...

    Raising Ducks and Chickens

    Hello All! My husband and I started with a small flock of chickens several years back. We decided we wanted to have our own free range eggs and got about 7 young chickens and 2 adult “auntie” chickens. We were very new to the backyard chicken raising and didn’t know how many predators were...

    My juvenile khaki campbell fell while running away from me and now she can't stand up correctly

    This happened a few minutes ago, after letting them swim for a while it seemed too cold so I tried taking them back to the crate where I keep them. She suddenly started running and tripped, thankfully the floor didn't touch the neck but she fell on one of her paws. There's no blood, twists or...
