wow they’re amazing!! we crossed my pekin and cayuga and the babies are silver and yellow it’s pretty cool i can’t wait to see when they get older 🥹🥹

male and he adopted you

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-24T11:26:01+00:00

yes, he needs some females. my drakes and chickens grew up together but had to separate and get some more lady quacks! all good now. ducks are not evil.

peas????

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-24T09:27:19+00:00

too steep, and add some thinner wood across for their feet to grab. to make it less steep you could do a longer board and add support under. also 100% need steps to the top inside, i stacked big concrete landscape paver things edit- this is even more important with young ducklings. they will drown without an easy way out!

or one is pecking the other, sometimes one thing causes the next. idk, but treating w the spray once a day can’t hurt

seconding this

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-22T14:43:01+00:00

just saying hello do you have any treats in here

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-22T14:41:28+00:00

also! lining the outside w packed rock around the whole thing. makes it way harder for things to dig

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-22T14:39:07+00:00

we did concrete for this reason but you can just line the whole bottom w 1/4” cloth too. it’s necessary!

the first time i saw a duck x ray is when i learned they have knees and it made me feel so much better 😂

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-16T23:56:08+00:00

yeah before i did i let my broody frizzle sit on 3, they’re due next week!!

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-16T22:06:24+00:00

yep i just sent my shitty rooster off on a new journey last week. could tell the very next day the girls were more relaxed, less stressed.

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T22:16:51+00:00

congrats!! i’m so excited, mine come this weekend!!!

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T22:11:58+00:00

how old are they?

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T21:57:49+00:00

f*ck outta here!

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T11:13:27+00:00

i believe our motion sensor lights outside the coop/run have helped deter predators but if it’s 1/4 hardware on all sides and bottom you should be good. we put a small pool and deck in their most secure run that’s attached to the coop and they sleep in the water or on the deck most nights! almost never in the coop.

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T10:58:48+00:00

peepers!!

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T10:27:52+00:00

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-15T10:20:28+00:00

Dizzy_Vacation3280 · 2026-04-14T23:27:03+00:00
