    Saying goodbye to my ducks

    Hello all. Today I must say goodbye to my 2 ducks. My neighbors have complained about their smell and threatened to tell our landlord, so my parents, overnight, decided to have them returned to the farm we got them from. Perhaps it's for the best, but I will miss them very much. I wish I could...

    Ducks may have drank soapy water, should I be worried?

    Definitely! Thank you, they still seem to be fine. I'll check back within a few hours, and if they're still fine, I guess it's back to business!

    Ducks may have drank soapy water, should I be worried?

    I hope so. They were drinking out the hose we were using to drain the water. It's been about half an hour, and they seem to be fine for now.

    Ducks may have drank soapy water, should I be worried?

    My laundry room sink flooded overnight (long story), and dirty, soapy black water was all over the place! I had set my ducks near the front yard, so they wouldn't interfere while we drained the sink and cleared out the water, but I noticed they were walking all the way back to take sips of the...

    Home-made duck feed recipe?

    I feel you misunderstand. I am not starving my pets; they eat plenty. I am just here to find out how to make them a meal that I can both make large batches of and be confident that it reaches their nutritional needs. I am sure my ducks see no reason to fly away from the warm comfort of their...

    Angel wing or normal growth?

    They just took a warm bath and were shaking themselves off a lot, so apologies if it's too blurry

    Angel wing or normal growth?

    Is this normal feather growth, or something I should be worried about? Looks like tiny blue paintbrushes are growing out my ducks' wing.

    Home-made duck feed recipe?

    Yep. I give them a large bowl of water, but we don't fill it completely since they get very messy and sometimes spill it all over themselves, which is not a good thing in the coming cold season. When they're out and about, they prefer to drink out a tiny pond that fills up when the hose is...

    Home-made duck feed recipe?

    They're not going to eat human food their entire life. My temporary feed situation is just that: temporary. I'm here to know what I can feed my ducks to keep them healthy, not get scolded for having them.

    Home-made duck feed recipe?

    Please list such things that I can feed my ducks. I'm not interested in anything else right now. Surely the stuff in commercial feed isn't magic?
