    Small flying bugs in duck coop

    They don't seem to be harming my ducks from what I can tell. There's no bugs on them and they are acting normal.

I let them out every morning to roam the backyard and at night depending on the weather, I lock them in the coop or allow them to be in both the coop/run. Is this similar to what you...

    Ducks bill is hurt

    One of my ducks injured his bill pretty badly earlier this year. I used vetericyn spray 2x a day on his bill to keep it clean and help it heal. It took a long time, but besides a scar, his beak is perfectly fine now!
