    My duck video

    Yeah, I don't wanna finish that sentence either, I can't do it without crying... it's been about a month and I still can't. June, Amelia was egg bound and didn't make it, so I bought bilbo to keep dw company, and then one night... a coyote... you know. I really ******* hate life sometimes.

    My duck video

    It's probably the last one I'll ever make, but I still want everyone to see how awesome my ducks were.

    Duck Won't Eat

    thanks (o: i'm hoping too, it seems to be getting a little better each day. now he just mostly pretends to eat, and spits it out... but i catch him swallowing every once in awhile, and he still eats up his tomatoes all the way. i have duck-proofed this house/yard a hundred times...

    well, i'm not a vet, and have only owned ducks for a year and half. i'm sure some green poops are normal... i've only had problems with the bright neon green, watery poop. it's only happened 3 times since i've owned ducks, and each time, they showed other symptoms of looking sick and seeming...

    Yeah its very scary to watch them mate. Except right before they do it, they initiate it by bobbing their heads up and down a few times. I'm sure there's a video on youtube somewhere. That part is funny. Water is what turns them on 99 percent of the the time. They always did it in the pool or at...

    I've only had ducks for about a year and half myself, so I'm still learning a lot too. We got 2 babies from Metzer Farms, 1 Female Pekin, named Amelia, and 1 Male Rouen, named Dark Wing aka DW. They are seriously the loves of my life. Sadly, Amelia passed away about a month ago from being...

    Is it normal?

    I agree that she needs a buddy, just saw this at the top of the duck thread... I'm sorry. I just went through the same thing. 2 ducks, and the girl died a month ago from being egg-bound. I still cry when I think about it. The boy got really sad, and wouldn't play anymore, and hid in his cage...

    SEVEN DRAKES?!?! Holy duck poop! How do you keep them from killing each other or mating the hens to death? I've only had 2 ducks at a time, but people always scare me with lectures on how aggressive males get and that they each need 3 women per drake. I think my baby is a male, and I have an...

    Yes, but is it possible for Khaki's to be green all over, especially at such a young age? Yes, it is bad lighting, but it is unmistakably green in the sunlight. I've verified this with others too, because I thought I was seeing things.

    My camera lighting is bad, but all of the dark spots are green and his first feathers, best seen in the daylight. And the light spots are the left over, baby fluff.

    WOW!! @ "WENDELD" Thank you soooo much!!! I just googled all of that, and it looks exactly like him! This makes soooo much sense lol. I called that lady who sold them to me and she insisted that it was a Khaki Campbell, and all I saw on her farm were Khaki's, Rouen/Mallard, Pekins, and...

    Duck Won't Eat

    Yes, I used the epsom salt flush. So far, so good... only a little green poop left, and he's eating some on his own. I hope with this he will be 100% in a few days!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!! I love this website. Somebody, like you Miss Lydia, always help me. I don't know where I'd be...

    My Khaki Campbell is all GREEN? He's only 4 weeks old and I bought him at a day old from a small farm, but I don't understand why he's green. Has anyone ever had a green duckling of any breed? I was under the impression that Khaki Campbells don't have any green, until they are a few months...
