My landlady is working on the enclosure this week and we are installing and solidifying it this weekend when I'm not working. My guy hasn't been left outside alone since. Thanks for checking in though, because safety and security will now be first priority for sure. I used to pen them every...
Thank you so much for this response. It was so sweet and kind-hearted it brought tears to my eyes. I have reached out to a woman about an hour away who has three Indian Runners for sale that are 2 years old. She wants them to all come together so I have teamed up with my landlady to take them...
New to the site myself as well. I've always browsed for answers, but never signed up til tragedy struck and I lost my Mango Bird a couple of days ago to a predator. I have a year old male Mallard and need to give him a sister/girlfriend back. I've also started a thread about incorporating him...
Both look identical to my babies and they turned out to be a male Mallard and a female Pekin, a BIG beautiful Pekin I lost to a predator just two days ago. Anyone have any advice on breeds that mesh well with Mallards? Starting a new thread too, have fun with your babies!!
My Dabby Duck's beak looks the same. It never has seemed to bother him, but I always keep on eye on it. We are in Denver and it's very dry here, but he always can dunk too and he does and it never seems to go away so must be normal?
And I'm sorry if I come off rude. I am still bleh myself about the whole thing, I wish I didn't love meat so much because I hate hurt/pain coming to animals. Seeing her like that messed with me for a bit (it was Sunday) and seeing my other act so funny makes my feel bad. Cleaned out her pen...
I have called a dozen spots in the last couple days and a lot by reference and still no luck. So your suggestion is to wait you think? I would love to help another duck out rather than get a baby, he just seems upset as she was the dominating one while he was her follower. Its the season where...
And sorry if I am taking something personal that is not even necessarily being said, but I do not need nor want just a baby duck. I want what is best for my adult duck that I have had over a year and planned on having their whole lives, this was an accident. I also have a dog that is 10 and I...
I have been on the phone all morning and called 7 shelters and rehab centers and no girl ducks, not even ones younger - none. I would love to save one, but I can't seem to find any! But I know they're out there! The rehoming forum on here is not sortable by location or is that just me? And I...
Dabby has always loved his mirror so thank you for the reminder on that, I immediately pulled it out from the bedroom and he hasn't left his own side since. I checked him for injuries and he looks fine and unscathed. He's such a lover, lets me pick him up and hug him just like she did, but she...
Good afternoon. I woke up this morning and went out to feed my male Mallard and my giant female Pekin duck only to find my girl mutilated and left bloody in the corner of my yard with my poor boy swimming away in his pool looking so shocked, jaded, quiet, and sad. I can only imagine what he saw...
