    Duck acting weird

    this is one of her episodes, or part of it. It lasted three minutes. She kind of whines during it and just sits there looking scared and her feet twitch a bit then stands up and acts fine

    Duck acting weird

    Well she hasn’t had a episode so far since 4:30 yesterday afternoon. She laid this egg at 8:30 this morning. It’s her smallest one yet. I am hoping this was the problem but I will have to wait and see. She ate pellets and her lettuce and peas this morning, drinking great.

    Duck acting weird

    Thank you! If she has another episode I will definitely film it (didn’t think of that at the time) I will definitely give her a calcium supplement. She does get oyster shells but doesn’t seem to like them much. I tried yogurt once and she just flung it everywhere . She just had me baffled on...

    She started laying on September 4th. She laid a soft shell egg on the 5th, then nice eggs for a few days, then yesterday morning a super small egg with a hard shell and a small soft shell egg. None today. She never lays with her legs spread back. When she has had her episodes today she kept...

    I did start her on a niacin supplement today and within about four hours she was so much better. By this evening she was almost 100% again. Thank you for the article! I will definitely be reading it to find out more :)

    Worried about duckling

    She followed me around this morning, she gets tired easily but seemed okay other than stiff. She even did a little running. Just still really seems uncoordinated

    Worried about duckling

    They get pellets, plus we give them peas and lettuce. I did put electrolytes in the water last night. so far this morning she seems happy, still is a bit wobbly. She stood up and stretched and tipped back on her hocks a bit. Didn’t fall over.

    Worried about duckling

    So I have a pekin duckling that is almost three weeks old. Today in her brooder (it’s a kiddie pool with pine bedding) she was jumping around then slipped and fell on her back. We picked her up and set her back on her feet. She started to walk and tipped over again. We took her out and had her...
