@Duckfarmer1 yeah it might be the size? You can't even see their legs in this, it is zoomed in so much. The original video on my facebook page Woad Raven Ranch. I wish BYC would just let us upload videos instead of embed.

Thank you for the feedback Duckfarmer1

Here is a video of them both. I realize the tile is slippery, so I put towels down after the video so they can walk better. https://www.backyardchickens.com/gallery/woad-raven-ranch-ducks-facebook.7917869/

Two lame ducks, trying to figure out why their hocks are swollen.....

I have had ducks for two years now with no illnesses or injuries so this is new for me. I have one drake and one gal (out of 6 total) that BOTH have a bum right leg at the hock...swollen but not hot. I brought them both in and put them in my bathtub - the girl's injury is worse, she won't use it...

Has anyone used pinless peeps on an imprinted peacock?

I have never heard of "packing peanuts" before and was shocked and saddened at all of the dead chicks in the box upon arrival. We ordered 4 Buttercups and 4 Norwegian Jaerhons - they sent 20 - and the only living chicks in the box were 4 blue and 4 buff Cochins! They were shipped on the 15th and...

Roo or pullet? This is the one being picked on. She’s? Letting me crush the sheaths off of her crest feathers lol.

Oh, no! Thank you for your advice.

I have 8 Americanas and 3 WC polish and one of them is getting their crest pecked out. They are all 8 weeks old and unsexed. Could it be from an agressive Americana roo? I may have one or two. Can you tell me what sex my 3 poles are? I have separated the picked on chick- it looks even more...

Sold to us as an Auracana. Americana Lavender. Roo?
