    Where to buy female ducks

    Does anyone know where I can buy female ducks? I have a female and a male peckin and the male is ripping out the females feathers on the back of her neck when they mate. I feel like it would be good for my female duck to have another female duck to hang out with if I have to separate them to...

    My female duck is getting her feathers ripped out from my male duck

    My female duck is getting her feathers ripped out from my male duck

    Hi! My female and male duck have a great relationship! They seem to get along well and are always excited to be together. The only bad thing is that when they mate, the male duck rips out the female ducks feathers on her neck so she bleeds a lot. If anyone has suggestions on how to cover up her...

    Ducks

    Their water is deep enough for them to clean their nostrils out. I’m using pine shavings from Tractor Supply. Their TSC brand. The temp is around 65.

    Ducks

    Hello, My ducks eyes seem to be getting a little red. Almost like they’re irritated. Could it be allergies? I don’t know if ducks can get irritated by pollen but I just want to make sure she is okay.

    Can ducks sleep outside with a heat lamp?

    I have 4-5 week old ducks that are getting pretty big for their inside setup. The duck house is all ready outside and it’s completely covered. (Air can get in of course so they can breathe!) the lowest temper is going to be 42 degrees Fahrenheit tonight but I have a heat lamp I put inside of it...

    Is high level vitamin b complex safe for ducks?

    I saw some people saying they gave it to their ducks and it worked. If that’s true, why are the product producers saying it’s only for cattle?
