I have two runners that are about 4 years old and never had a problem. This past weekend the pet sitter gave them almost 90 percent (ugh) cracked corn and when I got back Sunday night they were acting strange and didn't come running for their peas. Now they have not eaten for two days and...

I feel so helpless, he was alway fragile. he is two now, with a deformed wing. he will not eat and will not get up. i've done everything I can think of ............vitamins in his water, niacin (brewers yeast), I feel so bad. I am sitting with him. Can't unerstand. It is so sad. gotto...

Interesting experiment as my duck eggs don't do very well in the Rcom. Chicken eggs do fine.

Easter, my Americana hen has been broody for about three weeks now. I have been leaving at least one of Amble's (Wyandotte) eggs in the nest. I am getting fertile DUCK eggs tomorrow. My question is: can I put a couple in her nest and how long will she stay broody? Do they give up after about 30...

I had four runners. One was taken by a skunk two months ago (it was horrible). Now the female that witnessed it has not layed an egg yet! It's been two months and she used to lay an egg every day. Is this unusual? I'm beginning to think she will NEVER lay again. Two of my chickens were...

I am so excited...........Holderreade's is sending me two show quality blue fawn females (I have been waiting since last year for any SQ females). This is their description: "same plumage pattern as a Mallard female, but the black and dark brown portions of the plumage are blue/blue gray in...

I was just feeding my drake (an inside duck until spring). Actually he goes out for a couple of hours a day. Anyway, seems like there is a big tick on his neck. Is this possible being December? Will it drop off or should I tweezer and flush. UGH

I have chicken grit but it is very large granite. Thanks

I have been watching Davekrista's thread saying okay, i'm fine, deep breath.. She's going through the same thing I am............except the one egg (of my three runners) pipped at 8 am this morning. Then got a sizable hole going and now has been sticking its elbow?? or something in and out of...

Day 27, two little pips for the runners, but had to change the water and now the humidity has spiked to 83 degrees. Have I killed them? OMG I am going to be up all night

My duck eggs are in lock down and it is day 26. I candled them at day 24 and got rid of two quitters, but the others looked okay. When do they start rocking or pipping? I am getting worried. Humidity is at 72% and temperature at 99. Is this okay? They are runners. I'm worried. Just...

We have a cottage in the Berkshires on a lake. If I let the ducks out to swim, will they stick around? Can I coax them in with treats? Can they outswim a dog? These are runners. What about boats - are they fast in the water? I mean, no one's going to aim for them or anything (I hope), but...

When would you use this and what is the formula. It is an 8 oz dry package and says to use 1/2 package to 55 gallons of drinking water. Isn't there a formula for a cup of water? Only have two ducklings due in two days. Or is this not appropriate at all?

I have a disgusting stagnant pond in the back yard. It is filled with funny bugs and some frogs in clay soil. My question, will it hurt my ducks if they happen to get into it? BTW I have a wonderfully filtered pond in the front with fish. Just wondering.

Just have to rave about Just-in-Boots. Shipped two extra eggs and the packaging was amazing. it had live baby ducks (with cute little pictures) and live Hatching egg labels all over the package. Inside was an incredible packaging job. Even the post office was extra attentive......they called...

I have duck eggs (on the 13th day of incubating) and they all have dark blobs and looks like some have air pocket on the sides. They don't seem to be moving at all. Do they get a blood ring this late or how do you tell if they are quitters? Thanks

from very upright wine bottle shaped adults. Thanks!
