    Ducklings

    Hello! I woke up this morning to 5 adorable ducklings! Momma is still sitting on the last 3 which should be here any day! My question is I had to move the ducklings next to her because they were all cornered in the coop… I’ve created a separation for her and the ducklings away from the other...

    Broody duck-candleing question

    Hello! So I have a broody duck who has been sitting on eggs since Aug 16. Everything has looked good in development from what I’ve researched but this morning I was concerned because I can no longer see veins… any advice would be great… she leaves the eggs for a bit in the afternoon when it’s...

    Well it’s healing really well… unfortunately, it looks like majority of my ducks have the start of bumble foot… so we are thinking of cutting the back yard in half and “softening” the ground. None of them are limping and nothing looks swollen, but as soon as I picked them up it looks like the...

    Bumblefoot help

    There is a scab! I tried to pop it out last night but she wasn’t too keen on it, today I’m having a friend come over so I have a second set of hands and can get in there and hopefully get it out. The picture I took is before soaking it last night. Thank you so much for all the help!

    It It doesn’t look like there is a scab. I’ll try to get a better picture tonight although I won’t have any help so I’ll be trying this one solo 😳. If there is no scab… do I just keep soaking?

I’ve tried posting this on 2 different threads (while trying to read up and find info out) so I think I’m doing something wrong :( (please advise if I am… still learning how to navigate) … The other day I noticed the top of one of my girls foot looked swollen down the middle so I...
