    How can I help my duck get better with niacin deficiency?

    We bought her nutritional yeast yesterday and gave her water, but we don’t know whether we’re supposed to let her walk and play like usual or if resting more will help her recover.

And obviously they mated, and she’s...

    Is keeping quails and chickens together possible?

    I have a very big flock of about 50 chickens. I've got some big hens like sulmtaler, lakenfelder and medium sized ones like lohmanns. They live together with a lot of bantams for example sebrights and dwarf cochins. My question is - since my very large run would be quail safe (double close...

    Patricia the sad Wyandotte

    Patricia is a Wyandotte just over a year old. We saved her from a not great living situation in June where her issue had developed and now has set in. She is losing feathers, but definitely not molting as there are no follicles left on the skin. It's just seems to be bare skin below. And the...
