    Is mold my silent duck killer?

    I have been using Dumor feed for the entire flock. (Everyone at their age group getting the proper feed.) That bag of feed has been gone for a good while now but I would like to hear what the company has to say just out of curiosity. I took Miss.Trudy to the vet and we have our...

    Is mold my silent duck killer?

    Well, after a week long battle with whatever this is; the sick duckling dubbed "Tiny" died late this afternoon. Her vet appointment was for tomorrow afternoon but I feared the intense heat these past few days would be too much and they were. I will have to call the vet, I plan to bring...

    Help! I've lost 2 ducklings in 2 days

    We stopped feeding our ducklings starter/grower after 3 weeks because our earlier batch this year developed angel wing due to the high protien content. Once we started feeding them grower/finisher it healed on its own. I hope their organs are properly developed Anyways, we're using Dumor...

She fell down and kicked for a small bit and then...

    Is mold my silent duck killer?

    I have lost one duckling to what I suspect is some sort of mold induced illness and two more are very ill. The lost duckling acted off for about a day or two, just real sleepy and hidden away from the other birds. The other two just lay there and sleep for an hour or so, take a few steps, eat...
