Looking for a pair of Mandarin ducklings. Will drive in the SouthEast to pick them up. Thank you!

Please go there with the butchering and plucking talk. It is offensive to pet owners.

I am going to make a super simple, lightweight duck tractor this weekend. My two Pekins need to get out more and I can't be stuck to the yard playing "scarehawk" with fear of running inside for a second. What do you think is a good size for two Pekins? I was thinking A-frame, 2 ft high by 4 ft...

My dad has this Cockatiel that is 30 years old. Yes, THIRTY. He is super healthy and vivacious and looks great. We looked up the average life span and found it to be 15-20. Crazy. Little dude found the Fountain of Youth and is hogging it all for himself. Has anyone heard of one living this long?

Does anyone know where I can buy this? I want to have it on hand in case of botulism. I cannot find it sold on the internet (unless it goes by a different name) and my feed store does not carry it. Thanks!

I have two pekin drakes who are on the small side (4.8lbs and 7lbs). We are toying with the idea of getting two more boys (addicting, yes). I would love to have a Runner and a Call. I'm especially wondering about adding the Call... Is this a bad idea or should it be okay?

I am FURIOUS. Went to a flea market, they had tons of ducks, most of which were smashed in little cages WITH NO WATER. It's really hot here. So, I pointed it out to a few vendors and they were cool about it and thanked me. One said if I wanted them watered I'd have to buy them! WHAT?!? I walked...

Has anyone used a diaper harness from Feathered Fashions?

Loves watermelon Nerds! I dropped a box when they were on the patio. There were a couple of double helping dudes off the nerdspill. They didn't get too much but the response was pretty priceless.

A really wonderful gal on my pet duck yahoo group gave me the best advice. I had been scrubbing various boards and just could not find a good solution for floor substrate. Until now: Behold... All held in with 1x6 or 2x6 boards: Raise the boards an inch for drainage, add 5 inches of pea...

That is all.

I have a friend urgently needs a good Avian Vet in Miami. Anyone know of one?

My two 4 mo old pekin drakes are fighting. I have no girls. For about the last 3 weeks, Muddy, the smaller and more aggressive of the two have been bullying Olive. He's been trying to mount him in the big pool and ends up chasing him out 4 or 5 times in a half hour span. In their pen, he chases...

I want to get some diapers for my Pekins. I have seen the MotherGoose and IndoorDuck products. Does anyone have comments on which they prefer? Are there any I missed? Hoping to order this weekend! yay!

I had my babes for about 2 days. Olive had been the squirmy one from day one. Now he is a big lubba lubba and easily de-squirmed, but I digress. My dad was cleaning out the bin and I was holding them both. Olive jumped from me and landed on the floor. Holding Muddy, I bent to pick up Olive and...

Today my two Pekins found a small puddle in the yard and were digging like I've never seen. Then they started stomping their feet repeatedly. It was hilarious! What the heck were they doing? I got a so-so video if anyone wants...

I have two Pekin Drakes - 3.5 months (15 weeks) old. One is 4.8-lbs the other 7-lbs. They have been quite steady with their weight for about the last month. At this age, could they be done growing? I hope so, the small one even can get some air for a few feet sometimes!!!

We just found out that the two Pekins we have are boys. My family really wants a girl if it is possible. The boys are 5lbs and 7lbs at 14 weeks. Would it work if we got them a Jumbo Pekin hen? We were thinking that her size might help her handle them. Thoughts?

I was going to get a metal stock tank but then thought of the "tongue on the flagpole" issue in the winter with little wet feet. Any thoughts?

Surprise surprise! Been seeing my girl mounting my boy the last few days. We've been joking that maybe Muddy is a boy. Lo and behold... the start of the drake feather appeared in both of them last night, Muddy's is really pronounced. We were almost positive that he was a girl due to lots of...
