    Help needed, please. Drake bald spot. Molt or something else?

    I had a bald spot like that on my goose's neck, we figured out there was mites in their pen because it's been so rainy. Learned to use Saturday Lime, it's all natural and safe. (Safe enough to put in their bathing water, even, but it'll remove their natural oils so careful of that). Coat the...

    Rooster booster safe for ducks?

    I've given it to mine, but not much, it contains artificial coloring. I'll put a tiny splash of that in their water, and apple cider vinegar as well.

    No feed when free ranging?

    Thanks for the advice! The feed we give isn't in pellets, it's pieces of corn, barley, millet, etc. (New Country Organics duck grower) Might still be able to ferment it, but I know that if rain gets on it, it smells sour and they don't want to eat it.

    No feed when free ranging?

    Thanks for your response! We choose not to give them soy because we dont want to consume soy through the eggs. As far as organic goes, we choose not to consume pesticides. We might just be feeding them too much and need to put them on a specific feeding schedule instead of access at all times.

    No feed when free ranging?

    Good to know! I keep feed available to them at all times. Maybe I should be feeding them less. How much should i give them each day in summertime? For 9 ducks and 2 geese

    No feed when free ranging?

    Okay, thanks for your response. The feed itself does turn into dust at the bottom, which they pretty much refuse to eat, understandably. I've been buying New Country Organics. It's $1lb plus shipping. Shipping is hefty. Not opposed to buying another brand, but can't find any soy-free, organic...

    No feed when free ranging?

    We realize that we are spending quite a bit on our flock of 11. $250/mo for organic waterfowl feed. 2 geese and the rest are ducks... when we let them out all day, do they need the feed, or is the grass and bugs sufficient for them until they get penned up at night with their feed?

    Goose with bald neck patch?

    We just noticed an area on our African goose's neck that is bald. We picked her up for examination, and the area is nearly the size of a nickel, and has a hard/scaly/scab-like texture. We are hoping it's not mites/mange, but none of our other birds have anything like this. If you look close...

    Aspergillosis or something else?

    Because she is mature and does not have a drake feather, and sounds nothing like my drakes.

    Aspergillosis or something else?

    We adopted this duck from a neglectful farm without realizing her health issues. After putting her through several varieties of treatments, she is better but not 100% right. I will post all the treatments I performed, and maybe you can recommend whether I should try the nebulizer at this point...

    Scabs on TOP of geese feet?

    Thanks!! We looked around and noticed an area inbetween our duck and goose pen, where they could be scratching them. Will need to bend them back and cross webs that it solves the problem.

    Scabs on TOP of geese feet?

    I can only assume these to be scabs, they look and feel like scabs. Only on the top of her feet, a little on both and same for my other goose. What on earth could this be and how to treat it?

    It's worth doing a water test... might contain something toxic to them.
