Add animal care docs for alpacas, horses, and poultry

New animals/ section with mobile-first emergency page (vet contacts,
symptom-to-action table, first aid steps), per-animal daily care for
alpacas (Onu/Sapphi/Phil), horses, and chickens/ducks. Capture hay
quality rules, alpaca cleaning schedule (11 AM, 8 PM), enterotoxemia
schedule, shearer contact, and Sapphi's wound protocol from group
discussions. Add natural/preventative care guide reflecting our
natural-first philosophy with clear escalation criteria. Document
the VetSet first aid kit, chore schedule, and the team-delegated
process for taking on animal-care roles.

+# Chickens & Ducks
+
+Our flock includes chickens and **4 ducks**: Tango, and 3 others (names TBD — candidates: Polka, Pinto, Skippi, Rio, Silo, Pippi).
+
+## Daily Routine
+
+- **Open coop** in the morning, **close at dusk** (predator protection).
+- **Fresh water** every day — ducks need water deep enough to dunk their heads.
+- **Feed** — appropriate grain/pellets, plus kitchen scraps (no avocado, chocolate, raw beans, citrus peels, onions).
+- **Egg collection** — daily.
+- **Quick health scan** — count birds, check for any acting "off."
+
+## Watching for Issues
+
+### ✅ Good signs
+
+- Active, foraging, scratching/pecking
+- Bright eyes, alert
+- Normal comb/wattle color (chickens) — bright red/pink
+- Smooth, glossy feathers
+- Eating, drinking, laying
+
+### ⚠️ Watch closely
+
+- Eating or drinking less than normal
+- Ruffled feathers + lethargy
+- Runny diarrhea
+- Discharge from eyes/nose
+- Fewer eggs, soft-shelled or misshapen eggs
+
+### 🚨 Emergency — see [[emergency|Animal Emergency]]
+
+**Chickens:**
+- **Open-mouth breathing, gasping, tail bobbing** → severe respiratory distress
+- **Comb/wattle blue, purple, or very pale** → oxygen / circulation crisis
+- Standing isolated, head down, feathers ruffled, eyes partly/fully closed → critically ill
+- **Stops eating completely 24+ hrs** → serious problem (digestive, infection, pain)
+
+**Ducks:**
+- **Limp, weak, eyes closed, cold feet/bill, shallow breathing** → shock
+- **Predator attack** — even no visible wound, shock can kill. Call vet.
+
+## Predator Protection
+
+- Coop **closed every dusk**, opened in the morning.
+- Watch for tracks, dug holes, missing birds.
+- Big bee/wasp activity around stables/coop → check for nests.
+
+## Natural Daily Health Boosters
+
+The **"Holistic Trinity"** — see [[natural-care#poultry-holistic-trinity|Natural Care: Poultry]] for details.
+
+| Supplement | Dose | What it does |
+|------------|------|-------------|
+| **Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)** | 1 tbsp / gallon water | pH balance, electrolytes, immune support |
+| **Garlic** | Crushed clove or powder in feed | Worm prevention, anti-mite/tick (in blood) |
+| **Diatomaceous Earth (food grade)** | Light dusting in feed and dust-bath area | Internal & external parasite control |
+
+Plus useful herbs in feed/water: **oregano, thyme, turmeric**.
+
+## Predator-Attack First Aid
+
+Even if no visible injury, **call vet** — shock kills.
+1. Move to quiet, warm, dim space.
+2. Wrap in towel if cold/shocked.
+3. Dropper of warm sugar water or electrolytes if conscious.
+4. Don't force food.
