Question for all you duck owners out there, any of you use a waterer with horizontal poultry nipples (the kind you install on the side of the bucket not the bottom)? I know they still need water they can dunk their heads in too (I plan on having that outside... the pond) but I like to keep the feeders and waterers in the coops. I love the poultry nipples because it keeps the water from getting rank, just wasnt sure if ducks would use them since they have to peck it.
 
that was very nice of him

He hatched out about 10 chicks. He got 3, I got 1, and a guy in the ag 1 class got the rest of them. He said that the one that I picked was barred rock x New Hampshire so it was a pullet. It turned out to be a pure barred rock and a cockerel. I had completely forgotten that I was going to get some show winning Langshans that weekend.

My,female box turtle is very very sick
How do you know?

She has worms in her pee and is like foaming throwing up
Sounds sick. Like chickens, a healthy turtle can handle a worm load. Wild box turtles don't have anyone worming them.
Are the worms white?
I told you that wild caught box turtles don't live long in captivity. Of course you didn't listen to me.
What are you feeding it?
What is the substrate in the terrarium?
Has it had sun exposure?
Do you keep food in the terrarium?
Is it eating?
You should bring the turtle inside while it is sick and put it in an aquarium with heat and a UV light.
You can't give wormer intended for birds or mammals. Ivermectin and Piperazine can kill a turtle.
Take her fecal sample to a vet to find what they are and they'll give you something to kill them.
Call area vets to see if they have reptile experience. Ask if they're a member of the Association of Reptile and Amphibian Veterinarians.
If you can't afford a vet, you shouldn't catch wild turtles and keep them in a small space.

Quote: I heard about a police officer that responded to a call about a horse that had been hit by a car or was seriously injured, and that officer is said to have shot the horse in the head, but the bullet ricocheted off the asphalt and killed him. Have no idea if it's true or not...

I had to call the Sheriff to put down a young buck that had been hit. To make a long story short, with the immobilized deer at his feet, "Barney Fife" missed the deer's head @ point blank range, breaking the jaw instead.
