I'm honestly not sure what happened but we lost most the chicks that the hens hatched out. I've been keeping them locked up in the brooder coop due to seeing a hawk recently and they're now down to 1 chick. The chicks were just dropping dead over the past few days. I've been changing their water...

Some of the misfits chicks I got recently have been following Scout and I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm confused, concerned, and happy?

Besides the Dry Den bedding pellets that have Zeolites in it for oder control, what else could I put around the duck yard to help with the smell issue? My dad is currently planning to move stuff around so he can move them to a different area away from the neighbors but it'll be awhile before we...

I feel like a terrible neighbor I found out that the ducks were causing an oder problem with the neighbor behind us I apologized and said I'd take care of it

That's a relief!

Not sure on age, just that he's young. Let me see if I can get some photos of him. He likes to move around a lot on my arm so they may be blurry

I'm starting to think Tiny might be one of those "micro" Serama chickens and that makes me sad as I've read they have shorter lifespans. I've had him since April 27th and he hasn't gotten any bigger since. In fact, my friend who came with me to get him said he looks the same size

Oh, that makes sense. I'm sure my neighbors heard me when I screeched 'Why are you pink?!' 😂

Tell me why the buff Polish chick I bought from Wilco had pink dye on it

Lost 2 chicks over night. I went to let the hens & chicks out of the brooder coop and found them just laying there next to the hens. I'm wondering if something was wrong with them and the hens knew

We have 6 chicks total! I kind of expected it to happen but they kicked out the last 3 eggs before they were done hatching so they got too cold to continue. I should have stuck them in the incubator to finish hatching but I thought they'd stay on them long enough

Another one is going to hatch later today!!

After all the chicks are hatched and dried, I'll be posting photos of all of them plus photos of the hens to see if you all can determine who might be the mama of who. Doesn't matter to me but I think it would be fun to guess

The second hen has 4 chicks in total plus 4 more eggs that are still going. I'll be checking on them throughout the day to make sure nothing happens. I can hear chirps from 2 of the eggs. Once all the hatching is done, I'll let you know how many hatched in total

I got a nice surprise when I went out to refill the waters. The black hen in background has the first chick. The second hen is still in the nest with the second chick. I'm waiting to see if there's more. I'm happy to see little Scouts running around!!!
