    Pond heating??

    I need help. It is really starting to get cold here in Colorado and my duck pond is freezing. I’ve been looking into pond deciders but the lowest wattage I can find is 300 and my current limit is 100. I know it’s bad, we’ve been looking into getting our electricity upgraded but it’s very...

    German Shepherd Thread!

    Hey all! I just got a new puppie and she is the cutest! I’m wondering if she has some long haired in her. My other shepherds hair was much less fluffy when she was a pup. Any ideas?

    duck is gasping. How to help?

    Thanks! So I actually just got her in to a vet yesterday and the vet said she’s full of yeast. Apparently it started growing in the hay. So she’s got a yeast infection in her lungs and that’s why she’s gasping. The vet gave me some medicine for her and I’m hoping she’ll get better soon. Hope you...

    Bantam frizzled chickens in CO?

    Ok that’s great! A roof on the run sounds like a good idea. And I should have clarified, I use this thing called a cozy coop heater. It’s just a small panel that heats up. I don’t think it does much but thought it would work better in a smaller coop. Thanks for the reply!

    Bantam frizzled chickens in CO?

    Hello’s everyone! Not sure I posted under the right forum but I didn’t know that else to use. So I have ducks, chickens, bantam ducks, bantam chickens and geese and I of course want more. I am thinking I might get some bantam frizzle chickens next year, maybe eight or so. I plan on building them...

    duck is gasping. How to help?

    So this morning they are the same. It’s not getting any better but not any worse. The vetRx is clearly not helping and I have no idea what to do or what to treat them with. Help would be very appreciated!

    Hello everyone and happy Sunday! So I have a 5 month old call hen and about three days ago she started gasping for air. I’ve had this happen before and usually I just give some vetRx and it clears up over night but this has been going on for three days now. And just last night I noticed one of...

    Crested gene question?

    She’s so pretty! I have three drakes, a fawn runner, black Swedish and a golden 300. I’m thinking I’ll breed her with the runner. Do you have any pics of her babies?

    Crested gene question?

    Hello everyone! So I have a crested duck and she just started laying. I am wanting to breed her later in the fall but she is my only crested duck and I’m wondering if some of her babies will be crested? Both her parents carried the crested gene but did not show it. All of the ducklings they have...
