    How can I tell if my duck is being picked my other ducks?

    Hmmm. I have a similar problem with my ducks. I notice that when I leave them alone they seem to argue and try to pick on each other. I separate mine for a day and then let them play again in awhile. Seems to help it's like they get on each other's nerves and all gang up on the passive one! Idk...

    Hello. So I've had a duck, Sunny for four years. He's a jumbo Pekin. Well this morning when me and my husand woke up, he was limping around.

    He seems to be doing a lot better. I think he just filled himself up on water for some reason. His walking is better now as well. I don't understand it! Just happy he's doing well. Does anyone know when it's time to take the heating light out of their cage? Or should I wait until more adult...

    Hello everyone. I was wondering if his chest looking like this is normal?? It seems abnormally large today. He's also sort of stumbling a little and sleeping while standing up which is all new behavior. His brothers is nowhere near the size of him, I'm worried about him I can't lose another baby.

    I put some antibacterial ointment on where the wound was. I can't see it because of all his fluff, but he also seems to be growing a lot slower than the others. By far. I'm worried since he's the one that's had problems. He seems to not want to walk, and he puts his head down at times and...

    Very sick hen

    What kind of antibiotics would be best? I don't want to give him anything too strong.

    He seems to be doing a little better. However I'm still very worried. The gash isn't deep, i don't think. But he doesn't like for me to pick him up. I don't want to disturb him he doesn't seem like he wants to be touched. He's eating and drinking regularly. He's standing and walking with a...

    Hey everyone. So my sister accidentally let one of my 3 three week old ducklings out of their brooder. While he was roaming through the house my cat had bit into his little chest area and I found him and swooped him up right away before my cat could do any more harm. He was panicking at first...
