    Eggs

    I stuck my ducks first few eggs in the incubator to see if they were fertilized, I'm pretty sure they're not because there's no development and it's already been a few weeks, so are the eggs still ok to eat?

    Sorry Havent had Internet so I could update. But it's not really getting much better. I think If I could get him to lose some weight it would help a lot but I'm not having any luck with that. Any ideas for weight lose?

    Can I give him a little milk to get him more calcium in case it is the rickets? I was able to get the pill down him it did take some work though.

    I have found liquid niacin that has a dropper so I've been giving him that by mouth. And I found a vitamin d pill that's small enough I think I might be able to make him eat it. If I can't get him to take the pill I might have to try the cat kibble.

    This has been very tough to figure out, especially since this is my first duck. I don't think I would be making any progress without all the support on here.

    I let him swim around in a small stock tank for about 45 minutes today, I'm going to try to do this everyday. Yes I am giving him niacin. I do keep him indoors,so it could be vitamin d, I will try and go get some vitamin d today, I'll also try letting him outside more often. Still no luck on the...

    Im having trouble finding a store that sells nutri-drench. is it sold in stores? A friend of mine suggested lightly tieing his legs together but loose enough to let him walk, could this help? Now that he is back to standing here is a picture of other severity of his legs

    The weather is starting to turn cold but it was still warm whenever it started. Yes it is pretty fat. I will try to get a picture put up with the next couple days. And thanks for the info on worming and the feathers its quite a relief not having to worry about that.

    It is a little over a month old. I can't think of the feed brand but it's an 18% crumble. It's getting pretty bad, but it's still able to walk. I was told the they needed to be wormed at least twice a year

    I don't know where to start, my duck isn't fairing well

    I'll start with that my pekin is bow legged. I originally thought it was due to a niacin defficiency, but after a month of supplementing it I have yet to see any progress. I'm now wondering if I could be an infection, because it's legs felt slightly warm this evening. What do you think? And what...
