I will! Thank you so much.
I’ve never owned poultry before and my sudden finding of him hadn’t allowed me to do proper research so I really appreciate the help!
He’s somewhere from 4-6 weeks old. I found him abandoned by our local lake so we aren’t totally sure. I don’t have grit but I was planning on going to the store today so I can pick some up!
I might just be anxious, as usual, but my ducks poop looks a weird color this morning so just wanted to check with the experts if it should be something to worry about.
He’s acting fine but the only things that have changed in his diet is he got some blueberries as a treat last night and he...
I don’t remember the exact brand but it’s a duckling and gosling growth starter I got from fleet farm. He doesn’t get treats very often, except mealworms which he gets daily. The other treats he likes are corn, strawberries, and blueberries, and most recently we discovered he likes grapes.

Hello,
I’m probably jumping the gun by getting on here so quick with this question but I figured better safe than sorry.
I have a duckling somewhere from 4-6 weeks old and the last two poops he’s made have been very small and one was completely white and kind of pasty?
The only thing that’s...
Ok thank you so much! When I get the money I was gonna take him to my old avian vet just to get him checked out. I wasn’t expecting to get another pet anytime soon to vet money isn’t in the budget right now lol.
But all this was good to know and calmed my mind for a while!
He’s usually in my room which is about 75ish, a little cooler sometimes. He doesn’t really do it at specific times or at least not that I’ve noticed.
I didn’t know there was a state forum (I’m still new to the site) so thank you for that!
His eyes and nose are good although he is pretty sneezy...
The weather right now tends to be mid 80s with low humidity. He does have a very deep water dish and access to the bath tub at least once a day. I found him around my local lake completely alone so I’m not sure where he came from or how long he was out there.
As much as i would like to get him...
Hey,
I rescued this duckling a couple days ago and tonight he started doing this weird breathing. His mouth is open and his who body seems to move. Not sure what’s wrong with him?
Everything else about him seems to be normal except for his poop tends to be runny.
Just worried he might have...
Howdy hey. My name is Jamie and I don’t actually have chickens (yet) but instead a Pekin duckling! After getting him I had a lot of questions and most were answered on this forum so thought I would join.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Very much new, found this...
