    Mallard or Rouen?

    Update: I THOUGHT she was sitting on 9 eggs. All of the babies hatched yesterday with a grand total of 14 beautiful babies!

    I just put them in this enclosure today and one was very quiet and one was VERY loud.

    Male or female

    These ducks are about 11 weeks old. No drake feather yet so I was trying to tell by the sound if one of them is a male or not before I put them in with my other ducks but need opinions. Can y’all tell? Or is it too soon?

    Mallard or Rouen?

    She is a cutie for sure! She surprised me and decided to sneakily start sitting on 9 eggs a couple weeks ago 😳 so we’ll see how it goes!

    Mallard or Rouen?

    Ive had her for 3 years I always thought she was a Mallard which is why her name is Mallory but I didn’t even know a Rouen looked similar and started second guessing myself. She is very small so I’d say mallard is correct. Thank you!!

    Mallard or Rouen?

    Trying to figure out if this girl is a mallard or Rouen and also whether it’s ok for her to breed with a welsh harlequin.

    Help please! Ducklings legs are crossed…

    Just an update: we were supplementing with liquid b complex and nutritional yeast at first sign of issues but nothing improved. Took it to the vet and they braces its legs. Sadly, Flopsy passed 2.5 weeks later.

    Help please! Ducklings legs are crossed…

    Thank you. I already have them on niacin and liquid B complex. They are about 4 weeks old. Is there a chance they can still improve or is the damage typically permanent? I don’t want the little one to suffer.

    Not sure what’s going on with my Pekin

    That’s what I was afraid of (the pecking) I have 3 ducks and 10 chickens and their run is approx 462 sq ft. Think I would be better off separating a section off and splitting them up?

    Not sure what’s going on with my Pekin

    I am new to owning ducks and when I went out to check them this morning my girl Birdie has missing feathers and it looks kind of gross... And she’s also thinning on the back of her head. Could my chickens be picking on her or is it something else? Is she molting? Should I separate her from the...

    7 weeks old. Boy or girl?

    Thanks! I originally got a batch of 8 Chicks and then adopted this one from a lady who didn’t want her so she is kind of the odd ball. She’s about 2 weeks younger than the rest. But she is my little baby and the sweetest of the group!
