    What Is Wrong With Her Wings

    Thank you for saying that! She is such a sweet and beautiful girl even if she has feathers “only a mama could love”

    What Is Wrong With Her Wings

    Nobody has been picking at her that we have noticed but not sure if she is picking at it herself. The boys and girls are separated at night so that gives her a break from her boyfriend’s claws on her back. If it is ingrown, will it heal on its own? I love the Desitin idea! I’m not familiar with...

    What Is Wrong With Her Wings

    Oh yes! Her boyfriend does a number on her head feathers…. But she encourages him too so I feel less bad. We had them separated for a few weeks and all her head feathers came back! Within a couple days, he had her bald again. We feed Purina duck pellets and add brewers yeast daily. Anything else...

    What Is Wrong With Her Wings

    Hello! I have a 1.5 year old Pekin who started to molt in February. Here in Michigan, winter was far from over so she stopped mid-molt. Ever since her molt paused, her feathers have not fully grown in and they are starting to look “rotten”. I’m assuming part of it has to do with her boyfriend...

    Runner duck molting in 20F temps- what do I do?

    What do you use on the run floor in the summer? We used artificial grass mats but pulling them out to spray them down every other day, got tiring!

    Molting in the snow?!

    Where would the mites be? Would I be able to see them with naked eye? Where would they have gotten mites?

    Molting in the snow?!

    Is molting on 8 month old pekins, normal for this time of year? My pekins have started to molt. One of my girls has a little blood on her wing and but it doesn’t seem to bother her, and the other ones arent picking on her. I’m worried since we live in Michigan and have snow on the ground… it...

    Peckin duck Leg Issue

    I don’t think she is injured. Her leg doesn’t seem to bother her at all. She has been getting the liquid B complex as well.

    Seizure?

    Yes we have poultry cell mixed into all of their drinking water! I agree, we are keeping her inside for now. Hopefully she can get some rest without worrying about the others stepping on her. Our golden retriever is keeping an eye on her, with us, today. She has always been so loving with our...

    Seizure?

    I got up this morning and she was on her back unable to flip herself over. I brought her inside and gave her a warm water rinse in the sink and lots of food and water (with her b complex). She has been getting the full 1mL daily. Now we are sitting on the couch hoping she can get some rest.

    Seizure?

    Thank you so much. I will definitely make sure she gets the full mL and will start adding the poultry cell to their water! I just put her in the pool and she no longer uses her leg. She’s completely leaned to the side in the pool and only using one leg to kick. Any thoughts?

    Seizure?

    I have been giving it to her on pellets and she has been getting it for 8 days now. I will stop the niacin supplement's and give it to her on veggies to make sure she gets the full dose! When I put her in the pool, she does use both legs! However, she gets very wet quickly since she has been...
