Please help! Our 2 1/2 year old female ancona stopped laying eggs mid September when she went into full molt. She is still losing tons of feathers and not laying. This is 3 1/2 months now. Once lovable and craved coddling, she now is very aggressive and follows just to attack and bite. Blood work at vet said all looked fine, no infections, and just to up her calcium which we are doing but still no sign of improvement. Gone also is her normal quack , she’s just constantly screaching high pitched which makes us wonder if she’s in pain, but again vet couldn’t help diagnose.
Do some ducks take this long to molt ?
Could it be an illness causing all this ?
Any help greatly appreciated!
