I love watching them run and flap their wings. this is their temp 2 foot tall play pen, their next one is going to be 12x6 with 6...

    The Buff Orpington Duck Thread

    My two buffs and two ducklings I don't know age or species, their owner had a stroke so I'm taking care of them because they were alone at his house for 4 days when I found out. My buffs quack at night and I think it's because I take them in at night since they don't have a roof or house. I try...

    The Buff Orpington Duck Thread

    I got them at CAL ranch, I'm not sure where they get them. Thanks I think they're really cute. Getting plans ready to build them a house and enclosure so they can be outside all day and have a safe place for when they want to stay outside forever after they're fully feathered. Right now I go...

    She's still alive and acting better, no ones answered on the ER thread. Still not sure if I should give her the penicillin. She has lost feathers/fluff in the bite areas and her wings look purple when wet, plus she looks like she's molting?? The other duck didnt have to recover so he's already...

    Are mine runners? They seem chunky for starting the 6th week. Sometimes they stand tall

    Everyone's runners look skinny, what is a feeding schedule like for 5-6 week old runners? I usually just keep their food bowl/veggie area full

    Essential oils and chickens

    I use doterra's hope blend (bergamot-very diluted! Ylang ylang and frankincense) then add Helichrysum and dilute that with almond oil. It doesn't seem to bother my duckling and helps with wound cleaning. The helichrysum helps with healing. I was using iodine to clean her wounds but the oils...

    Hi I just joined recently because one of my ducklings got attacked by a ferret and I'm trying to get some help with the sounds she's making. I can't tell if it's just a painful noise or if she has blood in her lungs. She does have crackles under her skin when I touch them which I think is air...

    Duckling attacked by ferret, what are these noises?

She's acting better everyday but she still has different noises and I not sure what to do about the...
