    Duck behaving strange/worryingly, help please

    They are in layers pellets, and I have just introduced mixed poultry grit, with pebbles and oyster shell. Thought it might help them as they can't get out to forage. I will also be giving them their crushed eggshells back.

    Duck behaving strange/worryingly, help please

    @Miss Lydia have been to the vets, they believe it is neurological, possibly epilepsy or a calcium deficiency. They gave her an internal examination and she is not egg bound and otherwise in good health. I will have to take her for a blood test at a specialist vet next week. Hopefully they will...

    Duck behaving strange/worryingly, help please

    Thanks for the responses, I believe it's unlikely to be poisoning as they have been stuck indoors since Christmas because of the bird flu outbreak. I will see if the vet can see her today, better safe than sorry. I had three eggs this morning, but some of the girls are camera shy so its hard to...

    Is there something wrong with my runner?

    Hi everyone, I am starting to worry that something is wrong with little Indie (2-3 weeks old). She can stand and walk/run (very fast) but lately she has started sitting like in the photo. The last couple of days she seems to only stand for short times (10-15 seconds). She doesn't seem to be in...
