    Rabbits are a commitment, not impulse gifts for Easter.

And every year, consumers realize after the holiday that caring for them is a whole lotta work, which leads many to abandon the animals or pass them off...

    Northern California (Sacramento County) 4 Pekin Ducks abandoned by owner

    Hey there, I am helping a friend whose elderly neighbor lost his home and moved into his car. He left behind 4 Pekin ducks who were his pets. They are about 2-ish years old, and they are thought to be males. There have been no babies over there since he got them, so they're not a mixed-sex...

    Duck left behind this winter in southwest Missouri

    Hello all! There is a beautiful medium sized duck that has been left behind by his usual brown and green flock. I’ve lived here for years, I always joke wondering if he/she knows they look different from all the other ducks they hang with — they always leave&come back to the pond but this year...

    PLEASE HELP - CHRONIC BUMBLEFOOT

    I’ve never posted here before but I just rescued a duck a couple of days ago and he has very large bumps on his feet. I don’t know much about the previous owners or his behavior before I rescued him but from what I have observed he has no other symptoms of illness. I don’t have an avian vet...

    Pics of Development Stages of Guinea Fowl?

    I am wanting to compare my keet's development (size) to the average keet to be reassured that it is growing as it should. I understand that there are a few factors that could influence a keet's development, but maybe there is a standard scale one can go on? I have been searching on this website...

    Savage mini dinosaur - a day in the life of a keet.

    The keet (26 days old) showed me in person this morning, just what little savages fowls can be. It caught a gecko and, after knocking it about a bit, swallowed it whole. I already knew fowls to be so, but to witness it just a few inches from my eyes is a little... well... I can't think of the...

    Last week I got two ducklings from a neighbor that didn’t want them anymore. The kid had convinced their mom to let them get a couple of ducklings just to make their dad mad and now were trying to get rid of them. One I think is a fawn and white Indian runner and the other maybe a khaki...
