    Limping Buff goose, no apparent cause.

    Hey, y’all. I noticed yesterday my ~7 month old Buff goose had a slight limp. As of today, her limp is more noticeable, but she’s still getting around alright. She has no bumblefoot, and her legs feel about the same to me. She eats as much Mazuri waterfowl feed as she’d like, though her grass...

    My drake is choosing the pond over his girls - why?

    This isn’t really a problem - I’m more confused than anything, and would love some insight. My drake, Cherry, loves his pond, and I don’t blame him. It’s around 5 / 6 acres worth of water, with tons of mud, pondweed, fish, bugs - a duck’s dream. He also loves his girls. I got Cherry 2 hens of...

    I thought roosters fought each other?

    Okay. A few days ago, we bought a huge black Americauna rooster who is about 7 months old. My neighbor has a free range Derbyshire Redcap rooster who is about a year old. They got him like a week before we got our new rooster. Previously, all the chicks we had before died thanks to a homeowner...

    Are my drakes… flirting with each other?

    For context, I used to have a mixed sex flock, but recently gave away all my girls and kept the boys. Now, after a few days with no girls, my drakes seem to be... flirting with each other? They’ve been head-bobbing at each other like crazy! Way more than when the girls were still around. I’ve...

    Is This Bumblefoot?

    Last night, I went into the barn to put my chickens in their coop, and I found one of my 7mo hens acting out of the ordinary, lying there in the middle of the stall (it was a horse barn). I picked her up and thought maybe the weather got to her as she just let me hold her (something she's not...

    Keeping the Peace

    I had posted this on facebook, and once again, I have no answers. I'm losing more faith with that Silkie Group. Hopefully here, I can find an answer. "Just recently, my 6mo Rooster, Ash, suddenly list a toe nail. I took him to the vet twice (emergency and checkup), and finally his quick has...

    Uhhh We are not expecting babies! Is this fertile?

    So I cracked open this egg to give to my dog as a treat and then noticed this little white dot in the middle of it. I know that can mean it is fertile, but I have never had fertile eggs before because we only have a 23 week old silkie boy and 7 hens and 2 little silkie girls the same age as the...
