almost forgot ! Frankie& his ducklingbuddies went outside for a little while today 😊

oh and other color suggestions are welcome. my duck house is periwinkle,, and my chicken coop is black and white with a little red. however, tbh I might have to get whatever is available on the returned paint shelf for the cheapo price. i hope there’s something nice there 💕

le goose house has arrived. what a blessing after 4 years of walking the geese down a Rocky path to get to my garage addition room every night. needed this house to accommodate Frankie when he is ready to live with mom and dad. And here is the $25,000 question… what colors do I paint it? What’s...

yes I am fine with the handicap as long as there isnt suffering and pain with it. I want the vet to give me a pro opinion re quality of life.

the vet school said they give no discounts, and that I might as well go to a vet closer to home. i was able to scrape up enough for an exam with my local so we are going tomorrow afternoon. I kind of feel like I’m just going to find out that there’s expensive surgery available that I can’t...

@Canadian Wind Happy Birthday Duck Crazy Canuck 🐥🤩

thanks there is a Vet school in Philadelphia. I called to see if they have weekend hours, ( I only have a car on weekends ) Also if they have clinic programs, Perhaps some kind of research study thing that’s free or low cost at least. i’m waiting to find out. The weird thing about the “club”...

i took him outside to meet mom and dad. they were SO loud, they scared the pants off him. but after about five minutes, they settled down. Frankie, ( who I am now calling Ferdinand, long story being the name change) Was so afraid of them wouldn’t go near the fence line and kept hiding under me...

i will check . in the meantime, this video encouraged me ,by reminding me that when Frankie’s wings grow bigger he/she will be able to use them for balance and even to fly a little , so, yay!!!! walking is not their only option woohooo.

yes yes but what if momma duck is momma chicken?

I’m thinking amputation with a prosthetic because the foot is not correct the toes grow sideways out of the ankle so if the toes were removed, they wouldn’t trip him up so much, be like a peg leg pirate and a little prosthetic foot or boot could be attached to that but yeah, not able to afford...

if I could take Frankie to a vet, what do you think they would suggest?

when should i ( try to ) candle the duck eggs that are under my hen? around 7 days?

do you only spray eggs to humidify them when they’re in an incubator?? My duck eggs are under a broody chocolate Orpington hen. Will she keep them humid enough?

inside my old run that i like to leave open for an extra hiding place - some kind of mold or fungus? is it dangerous should i keep the run closed until i do something about it ? spray with bleach and scrape off maybe? it’s also a rain shelter for a baby pool filled with dust bath for the...

I put these six duck eggs from these two beautiful ladies under my broody hen today. they are my new friends from a flock that was fox attacked and they survived- they had a Drake with them up until six days ago. Which three eggs do you think are from which duck?

i am doing experiment with my purple potato patch this year i am allowing the weeds to do the hilling for me…. this is front of house around crow feeder barrel where i dumped dozens of bags of used goose and duck bedding in a circle, and then added compost and planted potatoes last year they...

oh and geese are honorary dux so no worries all is well in the quack shack

except for when they are not. when I first got three geese three pilgrim geese. I got one yellow gosling and two gray goslings. I thought I was set. Came to find out 10 months later. One of my gray girls was a mister, which tells me the breeder I bought them from messed up the auto sexing jeans...
