    Aggressive female runner

    Hopefully she will snap out of it soon. I was so worried for the rest of the flock but also for her, I've never had this happen before. I've had broody ducks but not like this.

    She always gets up in their faces out of nowhere. What should I do to calm her down?

    Aggressive female runner

    So weirdly, only one of my runners lays eggs and it isn't her. One of my other runners has a heart murmur and water belly which are both being treated by the vet. She takes medication for it daily. However, today my runner laid her egg outside the coop... Maybe she is broody? Whenever her...

    Aggressive female runner

    Hi all! I have a flock of 5 runner ducks, 2 Cayuga ducks, 2 ISA brown hens, a golden dutch bantam hen and 2 polish bantam hens. This post is about one of my female runners, Hannibal. I hatched Hannibal and her 4 runner duck siblings back in 2021. There were originally 6 but one passed back in...

    Prolapsed vent help

    Hi all! Back in March I got some new hens that hatched last November, making them 8 months old now! I got two gold dutch bantams and two polish bantams. One of my dutch bantams, Gertrude, has a prolapsed vent. I noticed this last night before putting the flock to bed. Her butt was covered in...

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    I have another update! VetRX cured my baby girl! She is no longer coughing! However, my males must have caught her cough but I am treating them with the same medicine twice a day and have been since this weekend so that should cure them too. I definitely recommend it for anyone experiencing the...

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    I'll have to check around to see where I can find some, but I will definitely change over! My biggest worry is that I don't know what has caused this and I'm worried about losing my babies... Their brother passed suddenly a month ago. He had hip dysplasia and was struggling more than normal, but...

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    I have an update for you all! So my female runner has been coughing less, however the second I let her out to forage she started up again! To make matters worse, I noticed my male runner also coughing slightly. I'm worried that maybe it's their coop? I noticed it is a bit dusty in there and...

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    See we've just had a rainy period here too and it's started to clear up, finally! I ordered some VetRX poultry aid that had good reviews so I will try that. If there is no change after a few days I will contact the vets. I will also see if I can get some oxine!

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    So last night she had stopped making the noise. However, the second I let her out of the run to forage on the grass she started up again! She is the only one out of the flock doing this.

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    See I thought so too! I've just gone up to pop the flock to bed and she is more vocal, however her quacks are beginning to sound slightly more hoarse?

    Sneezing Runner Duck?

    Hi everyone! My almost 3 year old runner duck Hannibal was making a weird sneezing sound today when I let the flock out. They were foraging together and I kept noticing she was making this weird sneezing sound. I picked her up and gave her a check over. She had nothing in her nostrils, nothing...
