I've seen pictures and videos of people with 100s of ducks. How many ducks do you have? Who here has the most ducks? Do any of y'all have 50, 100, 150? How do you manage them all?
I currently have. 41
we wrapped waffles’ wing in a wrap and it healed fine. Today I find her like this. Veterinarians are booked until October the closest one that can see her is 5 hours away and they can see her the 15th of September. Please help.
Hi, about two weeks ago, my female moulard duck began having a “runny nose” where this clear liquid comes out of her nose and I was wondering what it is, is it normal or some type of infection?? She’s eating and drinking normally, she loves her food and treats and I love her so much im just...
Hi all!
Seems everyday I have a new question about my ladies. My Campbell, Tina is recovered from her “sprained ankle” and is no longer limping Yay! but I’m curious to how many eggs Campbells lay a day?
My Cayuga lays an egg every 3 days or so, and both my Campbells having been laying every...
Hello! Sadly our neighbors have been complaining about our 4 ducks we hatched out in June. We are forced to get rid of them but we want to make sure they go to good homes. Is anyone in the Severna Park, Maryland area interested?
Hi there, I am new here and new to hatching. We have 8 viable eggs in an incubator and on day 27. 7 of them internally pipped and then almost 48 hours ago externally pipped. Yesterday one of them cracked the shell around 12 hours ago at the wrong end. Deciding to let nature takes it course and...
I am looking for a duck to be friends with the duck I already have. I can’t travel very far and don’t want to order ducks through the mail. If anyone has a duck they can spare I would really love to buy one. I’m near the fingerlakes area. Thank you. Sorry if this isn’t the right place, I just...

Hi all!
I noticed today that my black Indian Runner duck, Poe, is tucking her leg up when she stands. I noticed slight limping and inspected her feet. I noticed a tiny bump on the top of her foot. We have bees, so I suppose it could be a bee sting? I see no visible injuries or bumble foot on...
My grand kids gifted me 3 runner ducks for my birthday. (2-khaki and one blue)
Now that they are 6 months old I am trying to figure out how to make a DIY solar duck pool with a filtration system. I have done so much reading. I do not have power at this location. I am having to bale/dump the...
Hi all,
I unfortunately across from my lot have a couple of Redtail Hawks that roost during spring/summer.
My ducks enclosure is enclosed with hardware cloth & chicken wire. Chicken wire is across the top. 1/3 of the food also has sunscreen paneling for shade. So the hawks can’t actually get in...
In May we rescued 3 beautiful ducklings. They are a few months old now and we believe that 2 are females and 1 is a drake.
They have all been together since they hatched and although they are still young are so happy as a group. Always together swimming and foraging.
We love all 3 of them...
Hello! I’m new here and new to owning ducks!
I have 3 female Saxony ducklings that are currently two weeks old. I have been feeding them Dumor chick starter/grower the first week and have switched them to Purina duck feed that I blend up to smaller pieces. I’ve been told to feed them Chicken...
Wooooohooo! We got our very first egg today!!!! I found this evening in the duck house (not there this morning)! I think it’s one of my khaki campbells as I think my cayugas bloom would be way darker. Any wayyy
The top of the egg seems to have scratches in the bloom (laid right in entryway to...
So I have 11 ducks and I was asked if I would take in this rooster from a friends neighbor. He is a white silkie and to the best of my knowledge he’s full grown like my ducks. Can I introduce him into my flock and if so how? I want to know before I say I can take him
Super worried about this duck, I’ve seen pictures of wry neck but this looks different. Maybe it’s an early stage, but I just need help with what to do and how to treat it. I just noticed this today, and haven’t seen any other issues with this duck, or my other duck until now (my other duck is...
