We do have bees but we looked down her throat thinking something like that and nothing was showing.

I don't know much about ducks. We have 4 Welsh Harlequins that lay almost every day. They used to be real loud but as of the past few months they have quieted down a bunch. We feed them the same food as the chickens and have never had any problems with them. We do bleach their pond over night...

Thanks. We had another die yesterday. It was sick for couple days and just died unlike the first one mentioned in this thread. The other ones look fine but we are keeping a close eye on them. Also we clean out the duck pond every day. I dug a shallow water well about 12 years ago so it's a free...

We give them about a cup a week. It's always on the ground so they have a steady supply. Egg shells are way thicker than store bought.

We have been lucky. This is the third one out of 20 we have lost and we have had them almost 2 years. We take pretty good care of them. They lay a pretty decent amount of eggs. The ducks lay almost everyday. We learn and move on. Thanks to everyone who shared.

This is the first flock block we have ever bought them. We feed about 2 cups of corn to 17 chickens and 4 ducks just at night. It does not last long on the ground. The buffs are just large breeds. We have two austerlops and they are pretty big as well. The rest of them are kinda just skinny...

I was thinking her weight may have been an issue. We feed them a handful of corn at night to get them put up and they have straight 20% laying pellets. We do feed them scraps and such but it's not a bunch. Between them and the ducks scraps dont stay on the ground long. Once a week they get a...

Yeah she's already gone. I felt her rear end and stomach and could not feel any eggs. My wife thinks she may have slipped off the side of the duck pond and hit her head on the way down. We found her right next to the pond. They have fresh clean water but some of them insist on drinking dirty...

Late yesterday around 6:30 in the evening I cored 2 pineapples. I cut what was left in half and fed it to my chickens (17) and ducks (4). I have done this a few times since we have had them. I never feed them to top of the pineapple. I always twist the top off then core the inside with a coring...
