    Any other hawaiians out there?

    Hello Everyone! I'm in Oahu and have two pet ducks! I want to get more ducklings to raise but haven't found a place that sells live ducklings other than at pet stores from time to time. Unfortunately the pet stores mainly sell only muscovies or mallards and I am looking for a little more...

    Bugs Leeching Off of My Duck? Please Help!!

    Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've posted my concerns, which I believe is a good thing because it means my duck has been growing steadily and healthily. However recently I, along with my siblings, have noticed that there are these bugs crawling around on my duck's feathers...

    PLEASE HELP! TUMOR ON MY BABY DUCK??

    Please help! Recently, I was petting my duckling and just running my hand through her fur when I noticed a little bump where her stomach is. I was concerned because I have never felt it before and I'm genuinely concerned as to where she could have gotten it. I held her up to inspect what it...

    Anyone in Oahu that breed ducks (not muscovy or mallards)? Preferably Pekins? Looking for a duckling to raise.

    Walking My Duck

    Do chickens follow behind you or walk in front? If my duck sees something strange in front of him, like a leash, he makes a break for it. So maybe I need someone to walk in front of him and me in the back holding the leash instead. That way it won't be in his viewpoint

    Walking My Duck

    Thanks for the idea everyone! I do have a leash. He has a loop near the base of his neck on the diaper where you can hook a leash through. However he's horrible with the diaper even though we've put it on him since he was a baby, thats why I didnt want to put it on him outside since he has to...

    Walking My Duck

    Hello Everyone, So I wanted to take my duck out for a walk in the neighborhood for some exercise but worried about people identifying him as a wild duck even though he follows closely behind me. I was thinking maybe a tiny color or something like that but he doesn't really like things being...

    Feeding an adult duck

    Hi everyone! So duck has transitioned from duckling to duck now and I am still feeding him all purpose crumbles. The local store doesn't have special feed for older ducks and they said that they feed the older ducks the crumbles as well. But I've noticed that my duck has a hard time eating the...

    Duckling won't eat anymore

    Thanks for the ideas everyone! I will try various things and see if he eats. His sister was eaten by a mongoose that somehow got into our garden one day. We were outside letting them play in the grass and then faster than we could react, it snapped the neck of his sister and dragged her down a...

    Duckling won't eat anymore

    Hello everyone! My ducking is about a month old now but he won't eat his all purpose crumbles. After his sister passed away, he ate less and less. But now he's eating normally just not his regular food. He'll rapidly eat the snacks we give him like meal worms and koi food, fruits and vegtables...

    Sneezy ducklings

    What does your waterer look like? Maybe the water isn't deep enough for them to blow their noses in constantly to get rid of all the icky stuff stuck in there. Although there might not be visible discharge, ducks do need adequate amounts of water to blow their noses in on the daily basis...
