    Duck egg dead?

    I thought they wouldn’t be able to communicate well but actually I’ve seen the chicken eating and making noise so the duckling would come over and eat as well. It’s amazing how the duo works as I’ve never had this happen before

    Duck egg dead?

    I have a duckling! but the issue I’m now facing is the chicken pecking it. It was chaotic this morning because there were multiple chickens in the egg box so I removed all but one but I did also see the ‘mother hen’ peck it so I put it back under her after removing all the others. Do you know if...

    Duck egg dead?

    Thank you! I have candled today and it looks like an internal pip as I can now see movement. I see a slight crack in the shell as well so hopefully tomorrow I’ll have a little one 😁

    Duck egg dead?

    Hi, I’m just looking for an opinion on this egg. I don’t exactly know what day it is but a few weeks ago it seemed alive. My chickens have been sitting on it. I did see some veins around the ring 2 days ago, not a blood ring but should I be seeing movement or more to it? Sorry bad quality...

    Review by 'BlazinFury' in article 'Treating bumble foot in ducks:'

    Thank you so much for this post. I’m currently using this guide to treat my duck. I will say the link to the duck shoes doesn’t work but I’m hoping I’ve found a good alternative on eBay which I’m hoping to get very soon. Currently I’m using spray on plaster which has worked quite well but I will...

    Vent-bitting duck

    I’ve just run into this issue from a drake doing it while another drake mounts, did you find a solution other than separating, I can’t have him injuring my females which I think he has done to one but it’s only just clicked that it was probably him. It’s not even been a year since I hatched him...

    First time ducklings and 2 mum scenario

    Just thought I’d post an update, everyone is doing really well and really starting to grow now! 2 mums has worked out really well for them and they take it in turns with them. I had them in an old tray yesterday while supervised outside time and they were splashing about loving life 😁

    First time ducklings and 2 mum scenario

    Thank you for the information! They have been super active so I think they’re already pestering to come out.

    First time ducklings and 2 mum scenario

    Thank you, the bowls are only a couple feet away in their section. Oh wow at least that’s ok then, I thought it would have happened quicker. What should I do with the water? I have a bucket in the shed for the adult ducks so they won’t be able to get in there and outside I have paddling pools...

    First time ducklings and 2 mum scenario

    Hi, I’ve come to this site so many times for threads of advice so I thought I would join as I have a weird issue that I’m not sure is a good or bad thing. I’ve been having ducklings these last few days but I noticed before this that 2 hens joined nests before they hatched so I don’t know which...
