I attempted to open her wing today but she did not want me to. I tired with my other ducks as a test and I couldn't get it opened either 😂 good thing is it didn't look like she was being bothered by me touching it and moving her wing. I noticed they all have small at that location but one side...
Unfortunately it got too dark and I couldnt make it out there to check so I put them away. I was able to pull her wing and feel and once the wing was out more it felt like the bump went away. I am going to check tomorrow since I get off early from work. Based on my initial inspection, the...
Thank you so much! They are really beautiful birds! I have not tried that but I will try today! I think she will not be too happy so I'll see if I can 😂 She does swim and flap her wings on the water! I don't want her to be in pain but I feel like she would not randomly flap her wings if she was...
Hello! My year and a half of indian runner duck had a bump on her wing. I tried moving the feathers and I don't see anything on the surface so I assume it is in the wing. She uses the wings a lot so I don't think it is hurting her but I tired pointing with my thumb where it is. It is a medium...
Oh okay! Yes please share with me and I can try but I did have her at the vet a but ago, to get a general check up because her buddy died, and she was healthy. I asked them about the feet and this vet just said ducks get this a lot and to make changes to where they are walking but I didnt ask...
Hello! She acts normal and runs all over the place. I havent tried pulling it out because I can't get the area soft. I switched from doing Epsom salt warm water soak every few days to every day but maybe I should do it multiple times. Now it scabbed a little more over and you dont see the white...
Hello!
I have dealt with bumblefoot for my pekin duck, but now I am seeing this on my runner. It looks different than what my Pekin duck had, is this bumblefoot? It looks like the top of her foot is also a little swollen around the ankle. I have been doing epsom salt soaps and used Vetryacin...
Thank you so much! They have all of that in stock at my TSC so I'm going to go get that! Oh I hope the kernel comes out as well with the scab..... will I be able to see the kernel when the scab falls off or does it sometimes require digging.....? I have never done that before
Please help! My pekin duck looks to have bumblefeet! I will share a photo that was two months ago, as well as a most recent of each foot. I should have check more often but I haven't been able to lift her until today. Please let me know what I can do. I have read Epson salt, antibiotics, and...
I have tried looking at the charts but I'm not sure why I'm having so many issues. I will check it out more. Thank you for the information about your ducks!
Oh wow! So this whole time the pekin has been laying and the runner just started! I guess the pekin started early and the runner started laying late. Thank you for confirming that! I was really confused and the internet doesn't help with timelines or even egg colors
Hello! I have a pekin and a blue runner and I am very confused on who the egg belongs to. They are the same age, little over 5 months, and one started laying about a month ago, and I assumed this was the blue runner since they seem to lay before pekins. It's a large white egg, some are really...
I just looked that up and it does fit a lot better! Things change a lot from when they're ducklings haha! I've been told a few different things but then the duck changes and doesn't look like the cayuga and the khaki Campbell but it does stand tall like that runner! I'm new to breeds and the...
