I’ve been hitting this forum researching for a while but now I have questions that I can’t find answers to. About 6 1/2 months ago we were given a white layer hybrid to watch “for a few days”. She’s now a member of the family but we got 4 9 week old cayugas to keep her company. Things have been great for a long time but in the last week or two the now 15-16 week cayugas have started hanging around a small group of feral ducks in the neighborhood (we have a small lake where most of our neighborhood properties butt up against). I normally try to let them free range during the day, but lately they have gotten harder to coral. Tonight they went on the lake and ran from me, treats and calls. If I can get them back, they will be spending the next few weeks in the pen, but how do you get them to adopt to you as a friend and stop being so skittish?
separate issue: the white layer seems like she had a major niacin deficiency coming up, she walks pigeon toed and her feet step on each other and it seems to be hard on her. Any suggestions?
