    Help! Call duck with vent gleet? Not eating!

    Hello, Im pretty sure my female call duck has vent gleet. At first I thought she was egg bound because I saw her straining to go. But after more research she has all the symptoms of vent gleet: lethargic, smelly white discharge covering her bottom, pooping mucus or green liquid, swollen abdomen...

    Call duck eggs alive but with black spots?

    Oh no!! I will keep an eye on them. One of the eggs had it but it disappeared, I can’t find it. They are all still alive. Luckily two of the eggs that have it are in another incubator.

    Call duck eggs alive but with black spots?

    Hello, I am currently incubating 10 call duck eggs. It is day 17 and I have two incubators going. One for 2 out of the 10 who are losing too much weight, so I’m keeping them at 75% humidity, and the rest are kept in another at 55% humidity. I candled them today and noticed 3 out of 10 with these...

    Call duck eggs not losing enough weight compared to others

    Hello, I am incubating 10 call duck eggs at the moment. It is day 17 and 6 eggs are on track with weight loss, within .50-.75 of a gram. I have two eggs in the same incubator at 50-55% humidity that are barely losing weight, around .10 of a gram per day. The air sacs are significantly smaller...

    Bad turkey egg hatch rate, what went wrong?

    Thanks for the reply. Yes the eggs were collected from my own hens that are 2 years old. The specific egg turner I used allows the eggs to lay on their side. I candle all the eggs before placing them in for any cracks or malpositioned air sacs. All air sacs were on the bottom fat side of the...

    Bad turkey egg hatch rate, what went wrong?

    Hello! I’m wondering if some people can help me out with what went wrong during my hatch of turkey eggs. The hatch rate was only 50%. I had 26 eggs in the incubator, I took out 5 at day 14. 3 were infertile and 2 just looked like they died early on and turned into goo. Now at day 28 of hatch, 13...

    Help! Day 11 of incubating w/ cooler and hotter spots in incubator

    I am on day 11 of incubating chicken eggs, using the hovabator genesis 1588. I got a thermoworks thermometer because I knew from the beginning my machine was having odd temperature fluxes. The thermometer is calibrated and accurate via ice test. But the towards the top is reading at 101° while...

    Hovabator Genesis 1588 - 4 degree difference!

    I want to incubate chicken eggs this week, I bought two different thermometers because I want to make sure my readings are as accurate as possible, and increase my hatch rate %. I have had the incubator for 4 years and only used a handful of times, good hatches except for one last year. I’m...

    Duck with stubborn swollen ankle after 4 weeks of different treatments

    Okay, I’m not entirely sure what else to do for him. It is getting worse and the swelling is spreading to his center and left toe. I’ll try researching another antiobiotic. I was really hoping the enrofloxacin was going to work. I don’t want to keep spending money on antibiotics that won’t work.

    Duck with stubborn swollen ankle after 4 weeks of different treatments

    I have recently starting giving him ibuprofen, and now I’m giving him vitamin b complex. I haven’t been able to get any puss out of that hole that was oozing up in the web of his foot. It is like an empty cavern now. He hasn’t been able to walk for a month now, just kind of hobbles around when...

    Duck with stubborn swollen ankle after 4 weeks of different treatments

    Okay will do! It’s been 2 weeks since I gave him Enrofloxacin, can I restart and give him another round of the antiobiotics?

    Duck with stubborn swollen ankle after 4 weeks of different treatments

    hi everyone, a few weeks ago I posted on here about my Pekín duck having pretty bad bumble, and how to go about treating it since I have no access to a avian vet. I got the scab off along with a small kernel. That was about a 2 weeks ago. The ankle is still swollen, only very little...

    Severe swollen ankle on pekin, arthritis? Infection?

    UPDATE: I got the scab off along with a small kernel. That was about a 2 weeks ago. The ankle is still swollen, only very little improvements. I don’t think the enrofloxacin helped at all. He was on it for 5 days and then I stopped to prevent a yeast infection. His foot up near one of the webs...
