I bet some of you remember her as well.J I thought you might enjoy seeing these photos that Ranita Ashbrook took of some little tree frogs hiding on one of her...
Bit of humor from Bill A game warden was driving down the road when he came upon a young boy carrying a duck under his arm. He stopped and asked the boy,...

The same 2 of my own dogs that I use to round up my ducks,took it too far today.I was working in coops in the front,never paying attention to where the dogs...
A really scary story; I put the over the counter antibiotic on my baby duck also.It was an onintment. Is it needs not to get infected or she will die. Are you...
Hi Christy, I'm so sorry for you and your duck! I had a Muscovy hen that got mostly plucked and partially skinned by dogs, also. I treated her, and she...
* Just tell me how I can help her please.... * * Christy Don't know when this happened since I just saw your posting for the 1st time today, Sunday. I found a...
Given what she had to go through she is doing better.Its my fault she got hurt.I let my dogs chase down strays but I never let them chew on them.Because of my...
Try duck soup (food mixed with water and I do it slightly warm) and some poultry vitamins. Then they drink their food like baby food in formula. You can also...
... Yikes! I breed dogs and usually have a pup or two running around. I don't show my dogs, I just train so the dog is an asset on the farm, not a liability. ...
I am pleased that your life and your dogs work so well for you.I have severe scoliosis and I have a slipped disk so getting around can be very difficult for...
Christy, I certainly didn't mean to upset you so!!! I should have realized that other dog owners strongly dislike anything resembling criticism, and might take...
Hello :-) I just recently joined and have some Rouens and just acquired 4 Muscovies. They're all free ranging for bug control in the summer, but my question...
At least if they're in the barn they are better off than outside. In theory since they are tropical ducks and a main reason why they are raised for food is...
Rodney: Wanna trade 4 of your female muscovies for 4 of my male rouens? :-D (boy did I learn my lesson...never ever buy straight run, of anything! I ended up...
I don't know if they even leave the barn during the day right now. They roost on top of the straw bales (pooping everywhere, of course :-P) I threw some loose...
Sue; I don't need any Rouen drakes but we can work out something for the Muscovy hens. There's a Gamebird Swap in Hutchinson Minnesota in Feb. Usually the...
Henderson!! My grandmother was born there -- I've never been, though. I can't take them to a gamebird swap -- I'm afraid they'd be eaten. I'm looking for a...
We need to make sure you havent fallen for all the hype of the feed companies and you are not buying a lot of needlessly expensive feed. What are you giving...
I have chickens and guineas also, and I'm feeding everyone layer/scratch feed/gamebird food. It's all pretty much the same price, so I just mix it together....
I think it was Durocher? She married Jacob Witzany. ... lived here all my life. Born and raised here. Rod ... eaten. ... not ... couldn't ... as ... get- ...
Oh! Here's my stupid question of the day. I started feeding them in rubber tubs because I thought scattering it on the ground was wasting it. Now I have...
When it is not so cold that the water will freeze, go ahead and mix the feed in with water. Ducks are dabblers and much prefer to eat wet food. Plus there will...
I've never seen them dunk their food. Weird. I can't get over that even in the below zero weather, these rouens are climbing int he water tub and paddling...
I did a search of "duck soup" and found this post from June. I just have to say I was AMAZED that chickens (and ducks too? haven't seen mine do it...) are...
Gee,I would rather pay your feed bill,I think.I live in the U.P. of Michigan,I pay about $5.65 for 50# of scratch,$4.50 for 50#of whole corn, and I pay $11.50...
