As a duckling, she walked like a totally...

    Is this a Blue-Swedish/Mallard Hybrid?

Initially very skittish, but we became close friends and she loved to race me and our kayak around the pond. She was small-to-medium in size, and not heavy...

    Can Turkeys, chickens and ducks all get along?

    G'day everyone, I'm new here and I just wanted to know can I run turkeys, chickens and ducks all together? Can they even all sleep together? Just making a coop for my place at Kangaroo island and wanted to know. Thank you to anyone who responds 🦃
