Another question here, my bf got some Mexican feather grass and we wanted to make sure before we kept them if they would be safe for chickens or ducks. I’ve looked up about everything online, but still no answer. Do any of you know if it’s safe?
Oh and just for fun... as I was trying to take pics of one of my gals her sister comes up behind me as I’m squatting down, and with her break switches the camera to forward facing and MO officially took her first selfie today!

I'm pretty sure all the ornamental grasses are safe. My birds have always been pretty good at avoiding things they shouldn't eat. If you plant them, I'm sure you'll soon find out, if it's safe they will eat it to the ground :rolleyes:
Great thank you, then we’re going to use them :) hopping the duckies s d chicks have fun eating/ playing in them.
 
How’s your duck doing?
Hi @misslydia well we’re still waiting on the baytril to get here, but she seems to be doing ok other than her really hoarse and quiet little pips. We’ve tried giving her peas covered in coconut oil, I’ve been giving her ACV and some nutridrench orally the other day. She’s eating, swimming, drinking so I’m baffled about what to do for her. Any other suggestions? I left her outside with everyone bc of the fear of freezing her out if we brought her inside and then put her back out there. I’m literally sitting in front of my duck books looking up choking bc could it be she’s got something caught in their? When I feel along her neck I don’t feel anything. So I’m kind of at a loss of what to do for her. Any tips?
 
Supportive care is about all you can do until you get the Baytril hopefully that will knock out anything. Sounds like she’s doing all normal duck things.
