    Help! Ducks having episodes:(

    It’s day 5 of supplementing vitamins in their water and I can’t quite tell if it’s helping. Still waiting for the Toxiban to come in to see if we can flush toxins out. Here is a video of an episode that happened today, hoping it might help diagnose them.

    Help! Ducks having episodes:(

    HI all, I moved the oyster shell to another bowl. It seems the supplementing may be helping. We only saw two episodes yesterday, and today we cut out all other goodies they had been getting (spring mix or kale or bananas or cranberries usually) as we normally saw it happen around the time they...

    It seems the supplementing may be helping. We only saw two episodes yesterday, and today we cut out all other goodies they had been getting (spring mix or kale or bananas or cranberries usually) as we normally saw it happen around the time they got any of these. They had done it other times as...

    Help! Ducks having episodes:(

    Yes, she stands on them just before she starts to “drunkenly” stumble. I supplemented them with brewers yeast as ducklings because I was paranoid! Lol ugh it started with just the black Swedish, once, about a month ago but now 3 of the 4 do it a few times a day. If I pick them up when it happens...

    I add the oyster shell right to the feed so they have to eat it. They have each been laying 1 per day since June/July.

    Help! Ducks having episodes:(

    We notice it the most when they are on our back deck which doesn’t really have anything on it at all. And some days it seems they don’t dry off after a swim but of course that wasn’t the case when I took my black Swedish to the vet and her gland looked fine. I am trying some vitamins in their...

    Duck behaving strange/worryingly, help please

    I bought them a bunch of vitamin supplements that I am trying in their water today. Some days they seem like they don’t completely dry off after a swim but of course that wasn’t the case the day I went to the vet, and he said her gland looked fine. If the vitamins don’t seem to make an...

    Duck behaving strange/worryingly, help please

    What was the diagnosis after the specialist? 3 of my 4 ducks are currently having this issue and it is happening more and more frequently:( took the first one who did it (my black swedish) to the vet and he just did a physical exam and said she looked fine. He didn't get to actually see her have...

    Help! Ducks having episodes:(

    Hi everyone, I have 4 female ducks about 10 months old(full grown) who have started having episodes in the past month. One black Swedish and 3 “white layers.” It has only happened to 3 of the 4, but they seem to stand tall as if getting ready to stretch their wings, but then they sort of fall...
