I keep seeing people suggest the Durvet B complex…but all I can find is one that says “injectable” and for big livestock…where can I get the ones everyone here is talking about?
My daughter currently has a loft bed, so that’s why she decided to sleep on the floor, so the duck feels close to her. We put him in a doggy bed next to her and he actually stayed there all night. It was so precious! We actually brooded him and his brothers and sisters in my daughters room last...
So, I had a previous post about sudden drake aggression amongst my small flock. It never got better, and my duck diaper came in the mail today for my mallard drake. I was just curious to know if anybody else has an inside adult duck. We are just feeling it out minute by minute and tonight my...
Oh my daughter wants call ducks so bad and they are so cute!!! Initially we had a HUGE jumbo Peking named Bruce and we did Rehome him because he was so big and definitely would have hurt the hens. We will be sticking to smaller ducks now. The Peking’s came from a random clutch of ducklings from...

I see a lot of posts about drakes fighting eachother over mates, but barely any posts about my specific situation. My Peking drake was limping yesterday, and today my other two drakes (a khaki and a mallard/Rouen) were actively trying to kill him. I separated the Peking, but later found out that...
Our lady ducks just started laying about a month ago and our Peking, Maxine, has laid several double and triple yolked eggs. We call her our Golden Goose because she is giving us amazing and large eggs! How normal is this?
Photo of the first triple yolked egg we cracked, and a double yolk we...
