ALERT!!! I'm so worried now. I just got two baby ducks at my swap this month, and duck plague, or duck virus enteritis, has been found at this lake just ten blocks from my house. Please be aware and keep an eye on your water fowl:

This is a neat idea, a cookout with a hatching egg hunt.

Could easily go along with a swap! .......stan

I believe I have asked this before, or have read the answer somewhere, but I can't find it....so I am asking it again (sorry). My chicks are now about six weeks old. They have been staying out in the coop 24/7 for about a week or two. They are FINALLY learning to get either in the nest box or on the roost at night ( I had to go out every night to put them up). Now I am wondering if it is safe to let them out of the coop to free range like our hen Cluckers. They weren't interested in trying to escape the coop when I let Cluckers out, but now all of a sudden two or more of them almost charge the door when I open it! LOL I have to push Cluckers and the chicks in, so I can get in and block the chicks.....so is it time?
