Is this still available?

My gut said to put her back. So I went with my original thought. I mostly wanted to make sure that was right. So I tagged her (to watch her closer) and then gave her more colloidal and returned her.

I guess I was worried that SHE would get a respiratory illness and make THE OTHERS sick. From drowning and getting water in her lungs

My hen nearly Drowned. My husband rescued her, I wrapped her in a towel and rubbed her, I fed her 1 cc of colloidal silver, got her scrambled eggs, and now she's up and about. At this point I'm afraid of respiratory illness. How long should I keep her separate

I've been raising ducks for a few years. I'm still a novice despite the amount of ducks I've brooded and raised. But, in the several years that I've had them I've never had Angel Wing. I have my first two angel wing ducks. I did change things this year: Based on advice someone told me to up my...

I'm thinking it was now just food cough. She's normal, she looks stunning. Eating, grazing, for all I can tell normal. The drake is more protective maybe stress but IDK what from. I am not sure why I'm not getting eggs. No chicken nor duck hen is laying but the duck hen was already laying and...

My drake is coughing and my hen stopped laying. I have a lot of chickens and ducks what do I need to do, buy, help me treat. I would be devastated to even lose one.

I think that's why they are so much cuter so you can get over what a mess they are.

I know this is not my first time I think this is number four of brooding and I still haven't perfected it! But I'm wanting to brood more often and think about selling so I'm like ... This has to stop. I tried that with a container and one got stuck inside!!! Lol they are crazy. When can they...

Even if I have to start brooding and incubating separate I still need a system that doesn't need a daily clean out. You know? They are a mess

I need a water system that doesn't drench my brooder in a hour after use. I have to clean it out SO MUCH. It's crazy. I have a bucket with water cups and they still manage to get water EVERY WHERE. Someone has to have invented a mess free system that also allows the baby chicks that are with...

Well I admit this is my plan B of my brooder. My husband was going to build one but we never got to it. I thought that because they huddled. And there's a chill in the shop. I'm going to the store to get more supplies I will get a thermometer. Maybe a bigger tub. More bedding. And I couldn't...

I Thought they were too cold

I am feeding meat bird kalmbach I have a tub with pine shavings inside a dog cage so the cats don't snatch em inside my husband's shop. Usually I do them in the hen house in a corner. It's much smaller than usual. Maybe there's a better way?
