    Broody duck question.

    That is a shame. I can't let her sleep outside though so I guess I will just try and see how it goes.

    Broody duck question.

    My question is too long to google so I thought I would ask here; My Indian Runner duck disappeared 2 nights ago, we thought she had been taken by something. Then, the next day she returned but quickly disappeared again. We found her that night sleeping in the tall grass and she startled and ran...

    What gives him away? I have 1 or 2 more I think might be but no signs of red on the face.

    Buff polish

    Hi all, I have 5 buff polish... only 1 had any signs of comb and wattle and they are 10 weeks old. I was pretty sure it was a cockerel for that reason but now I am second guessing myself. Thoughts? Never had Polish before so I am a little lost. I know I should probably be able to tell by their...

    Duck agression?

    I think you're right. I was just checking on them, and they have quite an attitude! I will probably never look at them in the same way again... I will have to try and convince hubby to move their house to the greenhouse so they no longer have to look at each other all day and in the meantime I...

    Duck agression?

    It has been up for 2 weeks now... I do have a lot of extra poultry netting I could use. Actually, part of the pen is the inside of an old greenhouse, I could probably give them that (no roof, so it's like a pen with walls.) And the chickens the fenced in part. Ticks are bad this year though so...

    Duck agression?

    Oh my goodness, I just assumed because my chickens are so laid back it would be ok... I've never even heard of a female ducks being aggressive for no reason... I don't know anyone who keeps them seperate.

    Duck agression?

    Hi all, I'm very new to ducks and I have a question... I recently got 3 female indian runner ducklings. They are in the neighborhood of 8 weeks old. I have a Silkie coop and pen that I put the duck house in and I put up a temporary partition to make sure my chickens were friendly with them...

    Tiny chicks in a raised coop.

    I could, I'm mostly just worried I won't find them until it's too late. I might just have to sit outside I guess and watch.

    Tiny chicks in a raised coop.

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I have a broody momma that just hatched 2 chicks (a week late!). They are silkies and teeny tiny. The coop is up off the ground, it is sitting on top of 4 cinder blocks. She took them outside today but I can't imagine them being able to get...

    Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

    It is possible... I was told they were Silkies when I bought them and as they grew it became apparent they were mixes, but I am not sure mixed with what. The others have regular feathers but large crests. I don't mind that they are mix I just wanted the to have Silkie feathering. This is a...

    Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

    I know silkies are hard to tell but looking for some input because I assumed it was a pullet and was going to pick up a cockerel. I really don't want 2 cockerels. 9 weeks.

    Are these Silkies?

    They all have 5 toes. 3 have black skin and feathered feet and legs. I only saw Silkies/Sizzles and Cochins there so hopefully they fluff up...

    Are these Silkies?

    I bought four chicks and was told they were Silkies. Saw Mom and Dad supposedly. They are a few weeks old now and are becoming feathered, not fluffy. I don't know anything about Silkies admittedly so I was wondering if these could still be Silkies or no? Silkie mixes? 20170802_113758 by...
