Hmm. She didn't pass anything other than the egg-like thing so I wouldn't think she ate anything. Thanks for sharing!

Okay. Thank you for your help! She laid a mostly hard (one soft spot at the top) egg this morning.

I would say he/she is hot based on your description but if you are worried about it being something else I would take the drive to the vet. Hopefully, someone else on here can be of a bit more help

She gets layer feed and has oyster out free choice all day and at night (when it’s warm enough for water not to freeze). She’s never had a problem before so i think it’s a fluke!

Thanks for your input! :)

No need to apologize! I appreciate any help or ideas I can get! Check out the pictures I just uploaded from cutting it open!

Again, THANK YOU for your help! Here’s more pictures of the white “thing” as well as the soft egg she laid a while (3-6 hours) later. The “thing” doesn’t seem to move at all and seemed like a membrane when i opened it. As far as Sadie, my girl that laid it, she is acting completely normal and...

Found it in their room this morning.

She did many times.

Thank you all for replying. Im sorry i did not see your messages sooner. She seems okay this morning but we found this.

She also makes some slooshing and plooping noises when she shakes her butt.

When she breathes her whole butt moves up and down/pulses.

My around one year old female is breathing through her butt, drinking a lot, not eating, limping, trembling, and has fluffy butt feathers. She did not lay yesterday or today. But still seems to be pooping fine. When I put her in a warm bath I could feel a small lump on the left side of her chest...

Hey, BYC. It’s been a long time! Now, most of my posts and updates that the ducks are older are on instagram (@sadieandskipper) as well as our farm-to-be account (@miniacresfarm). Feel free to visit us there! :) Meanwhile, the ducks are over a year old now and are still as sweet ever! Not a day...

Hi! You cannot introduce ducks until they are of mating age (for females, laying). So, you still have a while. As far as getting rid of ducks, I have read the ratio to be three female to one male or else over-mating can occur. Depending on the gender of your ducklings, this is a great...

Hello! You would definitely need to make some changes to accomdate ducks as ducks and chickens' needs differ a bit. But, the part that is worrying me is that you intend to keep them on the lake. I used to live on the lake as well but NEVER let my ducks near it. While I have heard of this...

Woah. A year on byd chickens! It's crazy to think a year ago I was just getting into ducks and now have two amazing ducks! :)

With ducks and chickens alike, it takes a bit of time. It varies depending on the duck or chicken. When my duck started laying she was consistent almost right away. Just give her a bit of time. :)

Hmmm...was it the aliens? Haha! Any ideas?

A while ago I noticed my duck seemed to have an extra toenail growing from her middle toenail. I didn't think much of it at the time. But now she seems to have grown a small toe from beneath her middle toe with a toenail (see picture). Thoughts??
