    Bumble foot or calluses

    How long do you recommend I soak it for? And would I just use plain water?

    Bumble foot or calluses

    I recently just noticed on my black swedish ducks feet that they had this, it dosent seem to bother them and they arnt limping or in any visible pain. I've done some reaserch and haven't been sure which one it is, they are both a little over a year old and are laying currently.

    Sneezing and laying down a lot

    I'm using Dumor Balanced poultry nutrition feed we got at tractor supplie, the sneezing has thankfully died down a bit. We use a watter we got from tractor supply and is deep enough for them to dunk thier beaks in, as they sneeze in the water to I believe to clean out thier noises.

    Breathing

    She's not even a weak old yet. And I haven't let her swim yet becuase she's too young

    One of my ducklings sound like they almost have a stuffy nose when they breathe. There is nothing else visually wrong with her and she he's plenty of Food,Water, and space. Does anyone know why this is happening?

    Treats

    I was wondering, one, how old do ducklings need to be to have treats and do they have to be older for some treats than others. Two, how to give it to them. I recently gave my three ducklings a bowl of water with some mealworms in it and they seemed to have a blast fishing them out. But for...

    Ducklings jumping in water

    The only issue, is that I'm not always home or there to dry them off when they do jump in, I also thought from what I read on a few websites that it could ruin thier Oil glads or get them sick. They do sit under the heat lamp thought when they do get wet.

    Ducklings jumping in water

    Just an update, I switched it with another watter that should be deep enough for them to dunk thier heads

    Duck behavior

    I've noticed my ducks would wag thier tails when all three of them are together, and even sometimes they'll flap thier little wings, I was wondering what this ment. I also noticed that sometimes they start nibbling me when I hold them, I got mulitple answers from Google and I'm not sure what's...
