    Help - Drake suddenly bullying/killing other drakes in boys only flock

    He's been a week now in his bad boy pen. Initially if was in an enclosure where the others would pace up and down beside him and he'd still try and get at them from inside.

    Help - Drake suddenly bullying/killing other drakes in boys only flock

    Thanks everyone for your replies, much appreciated. I was hoping he'd only be in the "bad boy pen" for a couple of weeks! Things are a lot easier with him apart. I just hope that eventually he'll be able to be with the others again...

    Help - Drake suddenly bullying/killing other drakes in boys only flock

    Thanks for your reply Karen, much appreciated, but as I say, I might not know which chick has come out of each egg. My question is really about different colours or other obvious differences.

    Ducklings with slight spraddle legs - should I correct?

    Thanks for the advice Miss Lydia, I did the bandaid thingys on them both. One is doing fine, the other's fell off but he's getting around ok. They both were, maybe I didn't need to do it. Hopefully I've done the right thing. Thanks again, Jane

    Ducklings with slight spraddle legs - should I correct?

    Hi, your advice please - I've two ducklings, just a day old, both with slightly spraddled legs. They walk fine, though are both fairly weak still and wobbly. Should I do the bandaid treatment or is this something that will right itself/they'll be fine? Their legs go out approx 30 degrees. Would...
