Yikes!
Thanks for telling me that its different in geese. I always thought it was the same and planned on never buying any tufted geese. It is my opinion, and I mean no offense, that breeds with lethal genes simply shouldn't be bred, even if you can sort of get around them. It just isn't nice...
Thank you for answering my question.
That's too bad. I made it a rule at my place that I wouldn't own animals that had lethal genes in them, so I guess I can't buy any crested ducks. I'm guessing its different genetics then those that make chicken crests but similar to those found in canaries...
That is so wonderful that you are helping her. I wish I could have done that with my paralyzed chick, but I didn't have the time.
You could try helping her stand by setting her in a "sling" hanging from the roof of her cage, with her legs hanging down.
I heard somewhere that crested birds...
