    yes another egg every day so far but no improvement otherwise. I had to get up early (4am) for an early work start but still managed to bathe her and give her additional vitamins, unfortunately she was not doing as well as yesterday and she had a drop of a white fluid in each of her eyes which...

    Thank you so much for your response. It is so good to receive your feedback so I know I am on the right track. I love my ducks and chickens as we all do and help from like minded friends is wonderful. Thank you again.

    thank you so much for your response. I checked the legs by turning the duck on her back, pressing gently against the foot and there was good response, so if a leg was injured she would most likely just let it drop. I have read about Niacin deficiency but that is in ducklings. With my Daisy it...

    Indian Runner, 2 y/o not walking

    Hoping there is someone out there who has heard/treated this: My 2 y/o Indian Runner duck daisy has shown problems walking, she would walk a few steps then sit down. It started yesterday morning and got worse during the day. When she was walking her bottom end was down on the earth instead of up...

    Indian Runner Ducks

    Hello, thanks for your post.... yes they both lay eggs, so seem to be both female. Its been almost 2 years since I got them and they are so much fun. Molly (the dark one) is a lot louder than Daisy (the white one) but they are so lovely to have. The chicken/duck run is 8x3 m but as often as I am...

    Help!!! My Indian Runner Daisy is broody.....

    I have two Indian Runner Ducks, 8 months old. One started secretly laying eggs where I would never look for them and today I found her breeding on those 4 eggs. This may only have gone on for about 4 days. What is best to do? I don't have a drake and don't intend to breed with them. I also have...

    Asking for advice

    I am hoping that someone will read this and possibly have some advice for me. I have two Indian Runners, they are now 7 months old and both laying eggs almost every day. I have noticed that Daisy, that is the ducks name, is limping. She has done that before and it disappeared as suddently as it...

    Indian Runner Ducks

    My two Indian Runner ducks, Daisy (white) and Molly (black) are now 5 months old and have not yet started laying eggs. I had them from 4 wks old and they are so much fun to watch. I also hand feed them with treats such as strawberries and herbs. For their bath I am using a plastic childrens...
