Then I increase her intake of egg shell but it does not seem to improve. Then I just leave her as long as long as she eats and drinks. Lately, she seems...

    If you don’t take the x-ray, how do you know if it’s fracture or some other issues after ruling out bumblefoot

    Duck limping.

    Thank you for your input. I have been giving him human-grade brewer yeast lately. If I top the supplement with collagen powder, will it be overdose? Or should I add both but in minimum dosage?

    Female duck lose appetite

    Hi, I hope this is clearer. Thank you for taking interest in the post. I’m really worried about my girl.another thing is she has not been laying eggs for a year and a half now. Occasionally I feed her eggshell. But it does not seem to work. Will not laying eggs affect her overall health?

    Molting

    But I thought by increasing the mealworms , it will make up protein deficiency in the pellet? My girl molt just fine, it’s just this boy and it’s kind of worrying. If I have to add cat food in his diet, what’s the portion and how many times in a day should I give him? I normally feed him twice a...

    Injury underside of the wing

    They do have swimming water but my drake never touch it because of wet feather issue. So I bathe him weekly using Dawn. Then I decided to bathe him with clean water instead because bathing is a struggle for both of us. Now every time I carry him up he always thought I’m going to shower him and...
