    King quail with strange eye shape

    I have a female king quail who today I noticed was being picked in by her male. He’s always been super sweet so I don’t know what got into him, but she’s a bit roughed up. While I was checking her out, I noticed both her eyes seem to be a bit strange, it almost looks like the top eyelid has been...

    help! Does anyone know if Purina duck feed is allowed into Toronto/Ontario’s borders?

    My duck really needs a proper, sufficient duck feed again, but the previous duck feeds I ordered didn’t pass the border because it contained “meat.” Does anyone know if duck feeds like Purina duck feed is allowed into Toronto’s borders? Any advice would help, thank you!

    Why did green liquid come out of my duck’s vent?

    This is the second time it’s happened. This happened once awhile back, but we believed it wasn’t a very big deal since it was the first time it’d happened and nothing showed up online. She seemed fine and she does now too, she doesn’t seem particularly unwell after pooping this, so we’re not...

    Is it normal for my duck to have diarrhea 1-3 times everyday?

    She eats well and drinks well. She has snacks like tomatoes mixed with eggs once almost daily, but often a few times everyday. She eats Manna Pro Duck Layer Pellets everyday as her main feed with calcium being high. She’s usually quite lively and messes around a lot. Her poop is usually okay...

    Previous Layer Not Laying but in Nesting Box

    I have a 2 year old Ameraucana who would leave me a pretty green egg each day. She hasn’t laid in about 4 days but I find her in the nesting box each day- but no egg.

Today my father notices one of the turkey poults seemed to have his leg stretched out behind him...
