Hi

I've only just signed up to BYC so am new here (have searched for and found God-send information in months gone by tho).
We have sixteen ducks... Welsh Harlequin and Pekin. Two months ago we bought 2 Muscovy day olds!

Our other ducks seem like we water them with red cordial lol compared to Isabella and Ruby.
Isabella is unwell. We didn't have the funds to take her to the vet so we talked with local feed places and treated both girls for coccidiosis. She has improved but is thin and weak and has water belly so maybe something more serious is going on. We do now have the vet coming out Monday. She is a little heart breaker

.
Duckie love,
April

@mama duckie Welcome to BYC sure hope the vet can help Isabella she is adorable..

@mama duckie I had a hen with water belly over the summer, and took her to a vet.

Hope Isabella gets better. She's a sweetie.

Hi

Thanks everyone for welcoming me!
Isabella is at the vet and it turns out she has an intestinal blockage of fine stones

She can't eat for up to 2 days and we have to give her this oily stuff.
Little sweetie is still snoozing after sedation, when she wakes she can come home.

JanetMarie did your hen get better?

She had her abdomen drained at the vet., and about two months later I drained her abdomen at home. About two weeks after draining at home, she died. I knew she would not get better, but only did the draining to make her comfortable for the time she had left. The vet. said she either had cancer or a liver problem.

That is why I'm so glad that Isabella does not have water belly, and just ate too many stones!! Hope she fully recovers, and eats the right things after this.

Any Muscovy breeders in Minnesota? I have a friend looking for some.

Thanks much!
