Call Ducks or Bantams...Crazy Animals Around the Farm

[chickens really]

They are out free ranging all day everyday. I guess they just eat a lot. I’ll try lessening feed, but not too much. Thank you Shannon.

...All I know is they definitely can get to heavy for their legs...

Shannon and Maple are drakes. Both rasping too.

Definitely.

They are pretty, so I’m going to hate to see them go. I’m sure someone will want them on Friday.

I’m wondering if I should should separate Mylie from her chicks? I think they are driving her crazy and she is starting to peck at them. I guess that’s just the weaning process too though.

How old are the chicks now?
I would wean chicks at 6 weeks if the hen doesn’t do it herself. If she is pecking at them put her back into the Bantam flock.
