    Injured duck foot help!

    We’ve done two days of soaks, tonight I noticed under his wing had a huge scab/knob that had a lot of dried blood around it. Do I try soak the whole body and get the wing too?

    New duck babies

    Hello I have had so many questions lately I feel helpless! I just incubated my welsh harlequin’s eggs at work for my elderly residents. I brought them home and have been slowly introducing them to their “mommy” and they are trying to follow her and she is terrified of them! Is that normal?

    Injured duck foot help!

    I’ve done one epsom salt soak and put some alcohol on it after to dry the foot. My local vet didn’t have many answers for me besides that.

    Injured duck foot help!

    I don’t know when enough is enough for my Pekin. He has a swollen ankle/foot I think it looks I think is an infection. What can I do he limps around and when he lays down he doesn’t put weight on it. I have no idea what to do.

    One of two ducks dying

    I found a male duck on craigslist would it be ok to bring home another male? or should I find a female? I have eggs in an incubator right now that are due to hatch around June 10th.

    One of two ducks dying

    So I have 2 ducks that I incubated and hatched they were about one year old. The male duck disappeared which is very unusual I’m assuming the worst it’s been over 12 hours. Will the female duck be suffering alone? Should I find her another home?

    New to keeping ducks through the winter looking for suggestions and advise we have made a heated system to keep water from freezing and hopefully is high enough so they cannot play in it. We are building a smaller box for them to sleep in inside the coop. Do you feed them anything different in...

    Incubating Eggs

There is a chart that came with the incubator that says to keep the temp at 37.8C or 100.04 F during...
