    My drake passed away - goodbye Griffin💔

    Thank you everyone for your kind words. I’m hoping his buddies will be ok and not miss him too much. He had 2 drake friends who he was particularly close with, but at least those 2 still have each other

    My drake passed away - goodbye Griffin💔

    Thank you and I’m so sorry about your son’s Pekin😢. These ducks really become so special to me and it’s shocking when they’re gone.

    My drake passed away - goodbye Griffin💔

    Today my 1 year old khaki Campbell drake, Griffin, unexpectedly passed away. When I came home I found him weak and unable to move except for his head. His eyes were watering. I tried tube feeding him electrolyte but he died shortly after that. I’m pretty sure the tubing didn’t kill him - I’ve...

    Day 29😰

    If you post a well lit photo of the hole and the membrane visible we can give you an idea of how close it is to being ready to hatch.

    Hatching cracked duck eggs - 1 failure and 1 still alive

    They’re mixed laying breeds. I always mist and cool my eggs and I get a great hatch rate - but maybe I shouldn’t have since it was cracked. I’m not going to mist this 2nd egg🤞

    Ducks Pipped Early!

    My ducks usually hatch on day 27, but I have had them hatch on day 26 and day 28. My temperatures are correct, and they will even hatch on day 26 under the mama duck, so it’s not my incubator.

    Hatching cracked duck eggs - 1 failure and 1 still alive

    Hi, I have some broody ducks who have accidentally cracked a couple eggs. One egg was cracked on day 6. It had a small dent and some cracks around the dent. I sealed it with beeswax and put it in my incubator. It was doing great until today - day 23. Sadly it appears to be dead. Yesterday it...

    Ducklings externally pipped over 24 hours ago!

    Ducks take a long time to hatch. I have had some that take slightly longer than 48 hours to hatch after external pip. Most take 24-48 hours

    Drake prolapse phallus

    Thank you. I wish I knew if there was much chance that he can recover without an amputation

    Can my Baby ducks eat this?

    I also used it for ducklings and added some nutritional yeast

    Drake prolapse phallus

    Hi, So unfortunately I have a drake with a prolapsed phallus and it’s something that I’ve never dealt with before. The first thing I did was read a lot of threads here with people who’ve dealt with this issue before, and I got a lot of good information on how to deal with it. However his looks...
