I meant that I don't want her to get egg bound. I know that's bad. I had a cockatiel that became egg bound and we had to take her to the vet and somehow they broke it and we had to hand feed her for a couple of weeks and then she never laid an egg again.
She first started out laying one egg a day. She would stand near it, but never sit on it. I would just take it out. After a couple of weeks I put the fake eggs in there......and she began to sit on them in addition to her daily egg. Now no egg today. And she's acting just like she did before she...
I had a cockatiel that got egg bound and we had to take her to the vet. So she (my duck) laid about 21 or so eggs and then stopped. I don't need to worry? Thanks so much for the reply. It did make me feel better. I will check back later for another response.

I get mine from Avian flight suits......but my duck hates it and tries to pull it apart and now she has a sore spot. I'm not sure what to put on it. She could reach it with her bill. My male Muscovy didn't mind them at all, but she hates them. She was a bit older then he was when I got her.
And what can I use for a sore mark she has near her oil gland? She wears a diaper harness and picks at it and has irritated her skin. I want to heal it before it gets worse. Any suggestions? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Yes.....it's a Muscovy duck.
