    Fox killed 18 today

    My best luck with protecting my birds was raising a goose with my flock. Usually it would scare away any predator because of the attention it would bring but when it didn't I could get outside and take care of the threat on my own because of the goose noise.

    Duck Run Fence

    Rouen, Pekin, Magpie, and some crosses between the Rouens and Pekins. And I'm pretty sure my goose is an embden

    Duck Run Fence

    I'm trying to figure out how tall I need my fence for ducks and my goose. There isn't many predators around, and less that can be harmful to the adult birds. Just trying to figure out how tall it needs to be to contain my girls.

    Ducks Attacking my Goose

    the goose is only about three days younger than the ducks. I did move them into the chicken tractor because I do have it split into two areas for different breeds or types of fowl.

    Ducks Attacking my Goose

    I got a gosling yesterday to brood with my ducklings, but I had to segregate the brooder because my four 2-week old ducklings a keep beating up on him/her. Any suggestions on how i can easily integrate him/her so I can eventually add him to the flock?

    Can someone diagnose this?

    I can't unfortunately, I got home from work today and he didn't make it.

    Can someone diagnose this?

    We had to help him out of the shell because the membrane was starting to shrink wrap on him. He's able to eat and drink, and I'm unsure if he's even pooped yet, because I've kept him in the incubator because he has trouble walking.

    Can someone diagnose this?

    One of my rouen/pekin cross ducklings has something on his vent and has had it since he was in the egg. I'm not sure if it's just a bad case of pasty butt or if it's something else

    First loss. Any ideas what it was?

    I'm thinking a fox, you should probably think of locking up your birds at night to give them a little more protection. And think of getting a goose, they'll scare plenty of animals off.

    My Duck Stopped Laying Eggs

    She is laying eggs again, I just started adding some starter to the feed and the protein boost took care of it

    My Duck Stopped Laying Eggs

    I locked them all in the coop and I'm hoping i can see if she's laying them elsewhere.
