Angel wing?

Loose skin/pudge between ducks legs?
Wondering about my female ducks with loose skin or pudge between their legs? I suppose lower bellies would be more accurate. I just really noticed it this week. Only showing in 5 of our females (we have 14) - our 3 youngest and 2 others Is this a sign of overweight? Health issues? Or is it... -
My 2nd Duck Hatch!
Oh jeez that’s a tough one 😂 I haven’t read the other replies yet, but they look just like some of my blue Swedish and black Swedish. Maybe they carry the chocolate gene? Not really sure. I remember a while back someone saying their black feathered duck with a white chest WASNT a Swedish, so... -

Hatching Eggs - Journal
She really had the best view in the house! I’ll have to give it a go. I assume the few that do get separated will ‘get over it’ ? And Pickle? I feel bad but I also feel bad Clarice is alone. I have her with me as much as I can but it’s not the same
