It is actually why we decided to try Duckies. The boys can stay. Saying buy to your babies is the worst.
Then the reality hit and roosters aren't allowed on my council
I'm sorry. I'm at a loss. I have no Idea why you aren't allowed to have roosters. What is this council?It is actually why we decided to try Duckies. The boys can stay. Saying buy to your babies is the worst.
Cock-a-doodle-DOOOOOO!!!I have no Idea why you aren't allowed to have roosters.
It is my city's law. I am allowed 20 fowls on my lot, but No roosters. You can keep any other fowl as long as they don't cause a "nuisance" which is vague. So precautionarily I avoid loud fowl like guinea, peafowl or geese. If you have a lot smaller than 800 sqm you can have 6 fowl.I'm sorry. I'm at a loss.

I actually looked into the decibels of their call and surprisingly it is similar to a lawn mower. So yeah I know it is loud, but we are exposed to so much noise. Humans lived for centuries with close proximity to fowl and rooster calls were celebrated. Just as a thought exercise I like to image how we could get over ourselves and allow the chicken-human barrier to relax a bit.Cock-a-doodle-DOOOOOO!!!
Some neighbourhoods won´t allow them because they disturb the peace
I´m glad you found a nice farm for him Natalie
Cock-a-doodle-DOOOOOO!!!
I read that you could vet wrap the wings or something like that to fix it when it’s caught early?Well good news they already approve of adult duck food. Hopefully we can slow the progression of that is what is happening here.

Angel wing in Pet Ducks
Angel wing is a condition where flight feathers at the end of the bird's wings twist upwards. It occurs when the weight of the growing feathers causes rotation of the wing tip, as a result of excess force exerted on the underlying ligaments and muscles.

How do they compare to parrots in this way? Are they a poop every 20 minutes kind of bird or are poultry generally less poopy?p.s. I literally brought them in on clean bedding not 2 hours ago. They are little poop machines!
Due to the land our house was built on, we have some really weird things in the deeds. We cannot keep poultry, but next door are allowed to slaughter pigs as long as they do it in a certain part of their garden. Needless to say, we have never slaughtered any pigs in their garden!Know your rooster laws!
It is a very different mess. Parrots poops are pretty easy to clean and generally it falls away from them. My duckies walk on the ground and can easily step in it and spread it around. Generally they can last about 35min between poops when they are cuddling, though they are babies not sure when they are adults. They don't poop on me, which is appreciate they will remove themselves from the huddle. They poop more frequently when they are active. The moment they jump into the new fresh pool they all poop.. which is hilarious!How do they compare to parrots in this way?
