    Aggressive drake to new ducks??

    I have an 11 month old runnerXwelsh drake (Seth) and a runnerXpekin duck (Pippin). Because he's such a serial killer dad and she was determined on being a mother I decided to get a few more girls to add to our flock for when we had to separate them so she could raise her babies in peace. (He...

    how soon after hatching should you put ducklings in the brooder?

    We have 7 days till hatch day. It is the coldest spring we have ever had- and to prove this, in a state where we dont get snow, like ever- it has actually snowed in some places. All of September was basically gale force winds and angry rain, and October is looking pretty similar unfortunately...

    Is my duck sick??

    Her right eye is foamy and she sounds hoarse, like she's loosing her voice when she quacks, I don't know if it matters but she keeps fluffing up her feathers too which she doesn't usually do. I'm unable to take her to the vet until Wednesday as I don't get paid until then, but is there anything...

    Eggs? Please advise :)

    Hey everyone, so I've noticed my pekin girl has been getting out of her pen a lot lately (I thought she'd been flapping over it even though her wings are clipped, but there was a hole in the fence!) anyway, she laid a bunch of eggs behind the fridge on our patio and has been sitting on them, but...

    Nighttime Quacker

    Hey guys, my 6-7 month old Pekin duck (female) quacks so loud, every time she hears a sound at night! We cant even talk in the kitchen or boil the kettle or turn the taps on, flush the toilet without her going off! We're in a really quiet residential area and I'm worried that our neighbors are...

    Duck questions from a beginner

    Laughing Duck?

    Hello! One of my 4 week old Pekin ducklings keep making this funny laughing noise, I haven't been able to get a video of it as every time I whip out my phone it decides to be quiet (I think it's on to me!) I was wondering if this is a vented trait or if both male and females do it? The laughing...

    Muscovy taming?

    I've just gotten a pair of 5/6 week old 'scovies and I was just wondering if they're too old to tame? Their previous owner said their mother wasn't hand raised and he unfortunately hadn't spent much time with the ducklings after they were hatched. They're quite skittish, especially the young...
