I was thinking that may be a reason, she's still a bit young but well on her way to laying. Thanks for the insight. I think the free eggs to the neighbors is a great idea!
Hi Miss Lydia, we're located in Oregon. Enclosing more of the pen has definitely been on our minds, would prefer not to as they love to peer out and it helps keep the pen breezy and not stinky but they might force our hand on that one...
This is their pen, they have a little duck house within it that they sleep in during the night but as of right now the pen is pretty open to loud quacks. If it keeps up we might have to keep them shut in their duck house at night but would obviously prefer not to. Maybe putting some landscaping...
Hi folks, we have two 3 month old Khaki's and about a week ago one of ours has started quacking really loud and early in the morning, today was the earliest at 6am. Waaaah-wah-wah-wah-wah! She will settle down if we go outside and/or take her out of her pen but really trying to not train her to...
Hi folks, well it's been about a month since my last update. Happy ducks! We continued with the B complex daily for about two weeks total and continue to add brewer's yeast to their food and all sign of Poppy's limp leg is gone. At once she was smaller than Maple and now a month later she is a...
Hi all - Day 3 of giving our duckling Poppy a 1/2 ml of B complex once a day with her food has done wonders! There are still times where she prefers to sit and drink/eat rather than stand but compared to a few days ago where she had trouble just standing, my guess is with her current trajectory...
Picked up some of the B complex recommended above and put 1/2 ml over Poppy's favorite snack, cut up oats and let them soak. These two duckies are basically joined at the hip so the hardest part was keeping her sis Maple occupied with treats so Poppy could get her fill before Maple comes in and...

Thanks so much for the reply and links! We have some B Complex in liquid form that we picked up at Walgreens yesterday but not nearly the potency of the one you suggest. We'll give her some from that in the mean time and will head to the farm store in the morning as they're...
Hi folks! First time ducker here and was hoping to get some veteran duck eyes on one of my 2 1/2 week old Khaki Campbell's as it looks like she is having a tough time on her legs the past few days. She's still eating and drinking with vigor but will immediately sit down when she reaches her...
