Ok i live in the south Florida area, my family recently rescued a chicken, can't keep it in apartment. The purple stuff in the back of the head is iodine. Her/his head was all bloody up, seems to be doing much better now.
Can anyone take it? If not recommend a close enough place in south Florida.

It's wonderful of your family to rescue this little chicken!

If you don't have any luck on the BYC rehoming forum (https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/animals-in-need-of-free-re-homing.16182/), you could try this Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/76973145624. There might be other groups I don't know about too.

The chicken looks young, some additional photos might help tell whether its male or female.

Best of luck finding it a new home!

If anyone here is looking for a couple of ducks there are two running loose in the lower Florida Keys that the SPCA is looking to catch and then find a home for. Pic of one of them below 1000019075.jpg

Hello,

I have a question regarding the laws surrounding Muscovy ducks. Obviously they are invasive here in FL but I was wondering what I can and can't do regarding a population in my apartment complex.

Background: Ive noticed multiple nests and now three clutches born since May having issues. specifically of Spraddle leg. I captured and successfully rehabbed two of them that were about to be killed then sent them off with another user here to be legally relocated.

My thoughts are now what can I do to help the overall issue here. Is it illegal to feed them? Obviously the complex will have a problem with that but I can deal with them. Fish and game however....those guys are rabid. I feel like if I can get some brewers yeast and peas then that could fix the random ducklings I see limping.

Do I need any permits to remove muscovy egg nests? If so where can I get them? I figure the best course of action is remove nests before they incubate to help with population control.

I guess im trying to do anything I can despite not owning land and obeying the law (which unfortunately doesn't help these ducks)
