help?!?!

Aww, I'm sorry to hear about this.
Frankly, I think ducks and chickens are better pets than dogs or cats... they lay eggs and eat bugs, after all. I like dogs, but cats are just lazy in my mind... cute, but lazy.
Anyway, I digress. I hope that you can figure something out.

my dad said once we move again in the fall i can get them back (they’ll be living with family) but my mom is trying to get my to give them away for good and had no good reason just she doesn’t want them

It sounds like you're kinda young so maybe you really need to show her how responsible you are and that you can take care of them so she doesn't even have to be worried about them at all. Of course, since I don't know your situation I'm just guessing and it's just a suggestion.

i already take care of them all by myself. i feed them, clean the coop, play with them, fill up their pool, and everything else. she said it’s because they mess up the grass!

Oh boy, that's a hard one to get around but we've got 2 dogs and they mess up my grass pretty much too. One of them poops right under my clothesline which I really hate especially since they've got 10 acres to poop in with lots of woods and fields!

How about if you put them in an area where they aren't bothering the main part of your grass? Like moving their stuff over to the side of your yard where nobody goes too often? It's hard to suggest when I don't know your set up but what if you moved them a bit?

Are they free ranged or cooped. If your mom thinks that they are messing up the grass, maybe you can put them in a run?

the boys each have a separate coop/run on one side of the yard and the girls free range during the day and only go into the coop at night (usually they would all free range but the boys do not get along so to mating season)

suppose to be free range (in our fenced in yard) but only the girls are at the moment due to the boys fighting

 

[DuckyDonna]

Oh, so they basically take up your whole backyard?

 

[Duck mommy 2019]

my dad said we could give them to a family member until we move again, then he will build them a coop and

Oh, so they basically take up your whole backyard?

no, i meant we have the boys all in the same corner in our yard not separate ones (just separate coops/runs) the girls get our whole yard
