My male Pekin, Luna Ray, constantly attacks my lil pit bull dog, she is three years old. He will run all the way across the yard back and forth to get her. My dog loves that he chases her and will stand there with her butt to his beak to ward off his pecking. Occasionally she will pin him...

I use an aluminum dog bowl with a heavy bottom. Its about 6 inches in diameter too. It doesn't tip and I have never had a problem with my three pekins pooping in it. I let them free range my yard during the day and I keep their food and water in the shade for them under a tree. I have a 125...

Probably saying...this is the life lol

After I lost one of my females to Rectal Prolapse I introduced a new female with my existing female and darak, my drake was horrible to her. He had her neck raw from attacking her and having his way with her. I tried very hard to protect her but it was difficult. I have a divided yard and...

I i love to bake with mine. I also use them for batter for chicken. I eat them scrambled too. I love them. Funny how some have a stigma about eating them. Just like chicken eggs but bigger.

I have two females and a male in downtown St. Petersburg Florida. I have a small fenced in yard and understand what your going through. My male has a quiet raspy voice. One of my females is somewhat quiet and the other is not. She is constantly bobbing her head saying "drop it down, drop it...

Pekins remind me of Dr. Seuss's Thing 1 and Thing 2... They are so funny. Yours is beautiful too.

S she imprinted on your dog. My first duck did the same thing with my Pitt bull. I have a male duck that is constantly bullying my dog. He grabs her jowls and pokes her legs and butt. I am constantly telling him Lunar Ray leave the dog alone. Then I pick him up and hug him and ask him why do...

you might put aloe vera on the area. It is very bitter tasting and maybe that will keep the male from biting into her. Just a thought and it cant hurt her.

My male was getting very rough with my females and hurt one of their eye lids one night when I put them up. Since then I put the male in a separate hut at night as the females could not get away from him locked up together. During the day they can escape his grasp a little easier and at night...

How did you make out with your baby? I was waiting for a follow up post but it never came. I hope no news was good news.

Do you want babies is the question? I don't let my ducks have babies are there are so many unwanted animals in the world I don't want to add to it. Also, 9 out of 10 times when someone tells you the story of the duck they owned, they either don't remember what happened to it or it had a tragic...

mine love lettuce, romaine especially and sprouts. That's the only thing besides their kibble that they will eat.

Y That's odd, mine don't have a high levels of calcium in their food.. i don't feed layer here... too many young, instead opt for free choice oyster shell, ducks can do fine on lower proteins too... did they not forage? Now all this said some ducks do have a problem with their calcium...

T romaine lettuce and sprouts

I I feel horrible to say before I lost Frankie p I did not know how much calcium/protein they shoul have in their good. The floating pellets had 14% protein and.85 to 1.35 calcium. Laying ducks should get between 16-17% protein And more calcium.

We raised our first duck, Frankie Peepers in the house as a baby. When we let her out we first had her hanging out in the coop with our chickens for company. It was so cute watching her bond with them. She also bonded with my pit bull. I have video of her following Maxine my dog. Ducks are...

I have a horrible habit of spoiling all my babies. I have a relationship with the local fruit stand and I get lettuce for the ducks for every day as this is the only treat they love by trading chicken and duck eggs. They also trade me food for the chickens too. I love to be able to give them...

Its a lot of work. I have made it a little easier finding new ways to manage it. The duck poop is so thick that even at 125 gallons if I don't change the water out every 5 or 6 days it becomes foul. I got a whole filter system I paid 100 dollars for but it was useless in keeping the pond...
