Hi everyone! So we have 4 Jumbo Pekin ducks. We live in Vermont, so we get pretty heavy and cold winters here. I'm just wondering if we need to do any preparation for them for the winter? They have shelter they go in and out of all day and get locked in at night. Of course their pool of water...

We have 5 Jumbo Pekin ducklings inside right now. Three of them are almost 3 weeks old (hatched August 1), two of them hatched August 8. They've been inside our house in a rabbit cage with a dropping pan underneath and a heat lamp above. We take them out every night and clean their dropping pan...

Hi everyone, It is with deep sorrow I must share that our dear Swedish blue, Nibble, has passed on. We came home monday evening to find him standing by his fence, not moving, with his skin eaten up all over his body, underneath his wings, etc. He was a bloody mess. He was left to die by...

Hey all! So we finally got oup duck coop built and the fence and everything ready outside a month or two ago, and officially moved Nibble outside to live. He seems to love it, as expected. :) Our only issue, is he has turned mean! Whenever we go in his fence to unlock and open his coop door...

Now that the weather is warming up and spring is around the corner here in Vermont, we are beginning to think of the outside duck coop we are going to be making to get Nibble outside, and for his buddies when they are born and come home with us as well in April. We are thinking of making...

Our swedish blue is about 5 weeks old, a few weeks ago we noticed his wings looked like the one in the photo below. Now for the last week or so, his left wing is tucked in and looks normal again, but his right one is still stuck out like this. He opens both wings and flaps them with no issues...

Hi everyone, We want to order 3 or 4 more ducklings in the spring, since the one we have was the only one who lived out of 8 eggs. He's about a month old and is a swedish blue. I'd like to get the same breeds, which would mean ordering online or from a catalogue. I know nothing about that. Do...

Our duckling is about a month old now! He's doing so well! I've included some updated pics below. :) we can't believe how fast he has grown and how big he has gotten! He's doing well in the rabbit cage and we use puppy pads for the dropping pan for easier clean up. The wires on the cage haven't...

We brought out duckling home with us today! He was the "runt" of his "litter," the only miracle survivor out of 8 fertilized eggs. He's about 2 weeks old now, and came home in a cardboard box this morning, until we got his actual "home" set up. I've added some photos to share below. He's so cute...

We are so excited to be picking up our duckling wednesday! This is a first time adventure for us. We are getting a few more in the spring, but starting off with only one right now. We are keeping him in the house with us until spring. I think we have decided on a rabbit cage with a tub type...
