grannys gone and done it

[Granny Hatchet]

thank you ! I didnt know if they could have the same medicine or not. thought it might be different for them.

I'm not sure if it has ever done them any good, but they don't ever seem badly affected or anything.

I was thinking about when they needed worming or the ivermectin i use under the wing sometimes for mites. I also wonder if she is lonely. she is the only one around here and i have been seeing her eyeballing my rooster as of late. they dont pick on her anymore and she is not running too fast from me. but i have one little pullet that just cant get with the program. she chases poor flo all the time.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

wonder if ducks ever mate with roosters to make a hybrid ? what would you call them ? duckaroos ? quackcocks ?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Camping, did you go to the drs. today ?

If it is 1/2 duck I would call it a pain in the ***!

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Flo is a good girl ! I dont want more though.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Finally figured out what you all meant about them being messy ! LOL they dont go #2 they go #10 . looks like a broody dump. She has stopped laying already.

For worming I just give all birds flubenvet, I just get pheasant meal with it already mixed in. It's a lot easier when the birds are free ranging rather than in the water.
I did have a duck that lived with hens and seemed happy, it didn't like ducks. At least she has company in your chickens.

Not sure if we have that here . Enola ? they are starting to co-mingle . Rooster hasnt showed any interest in her though.
