    HELP! Female muscovy drinking lots of water but not eating

    @Miss Lydia she's doing better :) I've given her a bowl of water with the epsom salts and she's been drinking that. I offered her some worms and she ate a lot of them, thankfully. She seems more lively, which is also good news, but she's definitely not feeling 100% well. She walked a bit more...

    HELP! Female muscovy drinking lots of water but not eating

    @Miss Lydia I am not sure what the normal is, but to me it looks like it's pulsing a bit. Here's a video. The quality might not be great, but her vent seems to be going down a bit, then up. Not sure if that's just a normal thing:

    HELP! Female muscovy drinking lots of water but not eating

    @Jenbirdee I don't think so. Two days ago she left the area where the ducks stay and she wandered around for a bit. However, there isn't anything toxic in there as far as I know. @Miss Lydia thank you for the link, I'll check it. Thanks you so much for the help

One of them has probably gotten sick today and is acting in a very weird way: she's not eating anything, not even worms; she's constantly drinking water; and she isn't moving very much, choosing to stand next to the water bucket.

    Relocating my duck's egg to her "new" nest. Should I do it?

    Thanks a lot @Canadian Wind and @Miss Lydia . Yesterday we washed the dirt off the abandoned egg and placed it with the others in the duck house. Today she laid in the duck house again, so I'm quite happy knowing that all her eggs are safe! :)

    Relocating my duck's egg to her "new" nest. Should I do it?

    I have two muscovy ducks. The female laid her first egg last Friday. She chose one of the holes she made on the ground as her nest. Last morning and earlier this morning, however, she laid another 2 eggs in the duck house, which means she has two different nests in two different locations. I'm...
