    Duck Pond Ideas

    Does anyone have a similar preformed pond? We are wanting to upgrade from a kiddie pool, but are unsure if this would work for 12 ducks. Would ideally like a preformed pond so we can make a drain (instead of digging a pond with a tarp/liner). Pictures would be great for inspo!

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    The funny thing is, I have 2 Welsh Harlequins and BOTH have this prolapse/vent issue. They have access to oyster shell, poop like normal, and continue to each lay an egg every day. I’ve treated with cortisone, prep H, antibiotics…but it’s almost like they can’t keep their vent closed and a...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    She is doing better (knock on wood). A few days ago I moved her outside full time with the other ducks. She has a bit of an issue with a minor prolapse (looks almost like vent gleet, not sure) but she continues to lay eggs and spend time outside! I’m hoping this weekend when they get some more...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    She was in our barn in a heated room. I bring her with the other ducks for a bit and watch her, but now she’s to the point where she cries and pecks the door until I bring her back inside 😂 I will be getting ducklings next week, so hopefully she is happier with them not picking on her

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    How long would you guess this treatment would take? It’s been over 2 weeks and she still flips over on her back when drinking or when my other ducks run at her. I tried putting her with the other ducks (which she LOVED), but the minute she flips over one attacks her..

    Yes I will still give her the B complex capsules. How much thiamine would you recommend?? And I got her from Metzer (along with another welsh harlequin and some khakis). The other welsh has a bit more brown spotting/coloring. This one looks a bit more regal with all the white 😊

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    She is the same, still flipping her head back when drinking which causes her to walk backwards and fall. She is eating perfectly fine though. She was a little more talkative last night though. I will be receiving the Durvet Vitamin B in 2 days, I will try adding 1mL of that to her peas. I also...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    I will purchase a niacinimide and add it to some peas for her. I will also purchase the duvet b complex you suggested. I will compare the dosage to the one I have know and use that in the meantime. I tried giving her eggs but she refused to eat them, so I have been giving her vitamin e (opening...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    I attached the niacin I am currently mixing in her water. I was doing 3/4 scoop, which may be a bit much. I can start lowering that amount if needed. The rest of the dosing is pretty accurate. I do have some durvet b vitamin, but it appears to be for goats/larger animals (image attached). Should...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    All my ducks have been getting Kalmbach Duck and Goose. I have been supplementing her with brewers yeast and a niacin powder. All other ducks are fine and she seems to have improved as of the past few days, but when I checked on her today she wouldn’t stand up or walk and if she tried, she could...

    Adult Duck Neck Issues and Falling Over

    I have a Welsh Harlequins (8 months old) that has started to flip and sway her head back when drinking. Sometimes it gets to the point where her head is almost upside down on her back. Her head will be flung back, swaying it side to side, and walking backwards. When I lightly tap or push her...
