I am a new poultry owner, so excited to be on this journey. I am also a really worried new feathered friend mom? I need a mentor to help answer questions specifically on Muscovy Ducks and Chickens. I can't find all the information I need online so I'm reaching out to see if there may be someone who can help. Just need a bit of help to learn when to be worried, habits I might take up to ensure flock health and general things one might need to know when acquiring poultry.
Thanks in Advance!

Re: Mentor Search
The best mentor ever, a book
Raising Chickens. By Gail DMerow,
Not to discount the collective experience of the
members, but a good book goes a long way to get an unbiased info, your local library has it, if you don't want to buy it

There are 2 reasons PTO exists.
1) Information share
2) a bit of social contact (Around the Waterer)
