    Inside the duckhouse - Is this ok??

    I think it is the outer casing from the feathers, check and see if there is any new feather growth. If so you might see this same stuff around the feathers.

    water inside coop for winter?

    ascites and feed

    I dont think it is all in genetics, I have a rir, a cucco maran, and a GLW who are fine, a blue cochin, buff orp, SLW, EE are all the same with the fat bums, feathers missing and waterbelly look all are from different hatches but all eat the same feed. I do think the maran might be getting it also

    ascites and feed

    Is it possible that ascites is caused by the feed? I had one cochin with it, now I have like 4 total whose bums look like that. They are all a year this month I feed eggmaker crumbles.
