So, today one of our ducks broke her legs. She's a pekin about 9-10 weeks old. I will post a picture, but you can easily see exactly where the break is. How do we reset it and splint it?

I wonder too! I'll see if I can find any information on it! Thanks for the help!!

Well, we just cracked them open. They look completely normal on the inside, white shell and normal yoke. However, the shells were really thick and so were the membranes!

Interesting! It's definitely not just the bloom, as I can't scratch the color off. I haven't cracked them open yet, however I will be tomorrow to see what the yolks look like. Any reason they might be in shell gland too long?

Two months ago we started adding a little fermented feed into her diet, but her eggs didn't change until the past couple days. She has been foraging and getting a lot more beetles recently because of the weather change though. Could the extra protein have done it?

She's two years old. The white egg is what her eggs usually look like, the two on the left are the ones that she's laid most recently. She's never laid a different colored egg in the past couple years until this week.

Our duck (Rouen) normally lays white eggs, however the last two eggs she's laid have been a yellowish-brown color. What's wrong?!
