it’s been about an hour and a half since she passed the shell-less egg, and she’s still laying around, but she’s grooming herself, pooping, drinking and no longer seems to be trying to push something out. I’m still concerned, so if anyone has any idea on what to do, please tell me!

Another update: I noticed a leech in the tub- is this related??? I smashed it and it had some blood in it- poor girl! she just pooped normally, with maybe two tiny bits of foam- I just filled the tub up a little more and I’ll keep her in for another ten minutes. Please, how can I help her?

UPDATE: I drew her a warm (not hot) bath and within seconds, she let out a shell-less egg and some poop. She’s now sitting and drinking. I’ll keep her in here for another 8 minutes as of when I started writing. She’s puffing a little, still

Help, my duck seems to be trying to lay an egg, but she laid this I believe??? She’s been really broody lately and I’m worried. What is this, and how can I help her?

Adorable! A head rest

that’s cute! And while it certainly isn’t hot weather, she IS a bit on the heftier side of duck breeds. No croupy sounds! She doesn’t seem to like clearing her nose in the dishes, either. We have a large pond that they spend most of their day in/by, where she usually does her swishing.

Sally, my female Duclair occasionally sleeps/rests like this, and it worries me. It seems pretty innocuous, but I can’t help but fear somethings up. There’s not much else concerning going on, other than that she is slower than the rest of the flock and seems a bit “air headed.” She is also a...

Thanks! I tried editing, but I don’t see the tag input 🤔 I’m on mobile, if that changes things it all came back to me, especially being startled by the goose breaking the silence with a crunch!

I realized I forgot to add tags! Does anyone know how I can add them after posting, or if that’s even possible? Thanks!

So today, I had a shock while making an omelette, as I had not planned to make green eggs and ham. I cracked open a fresh egg, only for it to look like this: Obviously, this scared me. At first, I panicked. Are one of my ducks laying rotten eggs? Is that even a thing? Is it… bacterial?!? Then...
