    Mallard Female Vocal Issue?

    Thank you for the response! No, I don't have a video, but I will record the next time they get all riled up. It will most likely be taken where they don't see the camera because they freak out if I go near them with it.

    Mallard Female Vocal Issue?

    Yes, she and her sibling ( from different clutches ) are both extremely chatty. I've never in my 20 years of having pets ducks had duckies this noisy. If I put a new toy or even a balled up sheet in their pen, they go nuts with excitement and make all kinds of "weird" sounds. If I don't...

    Why is my duck on her back?

    You are 100% correct in getting them up ASAP - I have found that this is more dangerous during a molt due to less wing leverage.

    Mallard Female Vocal Issue?

    Hi, I have two 16 week old Mallard females and one of them makes a loud - high pitched sound ( like a chirp or sharp sneeze ) when she gets excited and very chatty. The other one doesn't do this. They are both perfectly healthy in all ways - is this something to be concerned about?

    Duck Behavior ( Vibrating Head and Neck )

    She is the boss so that makes sense! I love the 6am "trumpet" blast when she's hungry.

    Duck Behavior ( Vibrating Head and Neck )

    I have two 8 1/2 week old Mallard females ( indoor pets ) and one of them will vibrate her head and neck super fast and then poke her head into the sleeve of my shirt. She only does this when she hangs out on my lap. Any one else seen this? Also, their weight is at about 2.25 pounds. Fed...

    What about a Grower feed? Mazuri only has Starter and Maintenance.

    Mazuri Waterfowl Starter Feed.

    I have two week old Mallard ducklings that I picked up from Metzer Farms in TN, and they are on Mazuri Waterfowl Starter. How long do they need this feed before going to the Maintenance feed? Also, I need to know if I need to find some type of Grower feed between the two Mazuri types.

    It's Been More Than 6 Months

    I have three Mallard Females coming from Metzer in less than two weeks. I have their crib, food, brooder, and Mazuri feed. Hepa filter, R.O water, Meal worms, toys, etc. I finished Molly's slab today and it almost killed me - even though I had paid help.

    It's Been More Than 6 Months

    Yeah, her brother Spaz is a monster, but I love him too. God showed me pets in the afterlife and I know it's 100% true. I miss Molly so much that I started smoking 4 packs of cigarettes a day and drinking a pint of Vodka in the evening to help me sleep.
