Oh really! Maybe then! She does sit on the other ducks back and pull feathers, and they head bob a lot in there too - isn't that a mating sign? I figured that since there were no drakes it must just be excitement lol! I didn't know they mated in water! Thanks for the help :-)
I was convinced my KC was a male, infact so much so that it's still referred to as he and him and is called Arthur! Lol! But they both lay eggs so definitely both female!
I know someone's already asked this but I can't find the thread to comment on that, sorry! I have 2 female ducks, a pekin and a khaki Campbell. I got them both when they were 2 weeks old and they've been inseparable since, they're now 5 months old and still inseparable, but their pool time has...
Haha this is amazing!!! I taught one of mine to "turn" before he gets his treat. I tried to teach the other but she just turns and waddles off. Even a treat won't persuade her!! Keep going!
I have offered mine little pieces of bread on the odd occasion and they turn their nose up at it! I can't believe it - is it possible to have snobby ducks!! Unless I have crumpets, then I don't have a choice haha
This post really made me chuckle - mine were exactly the same! I talk to mine a LOT - all of my neighbours think I'm nuts. I get the strangest looks!!! They're now 4 and a half months old and much more comfortable around me. Whenever I come in to the garden and they don't see me I talk or...
I think it might Confuse them that they're allowed in the back door that leads to the kitchen as that's all tiles, but not allowed in the back door to the lounge as that's carpet! Generally though they're quite good - they come straight in when I open the kitchen door but just hover by the back...
I am an Aloe Vera distributor following using the products for both myself and my ducks - it has done wonders for my ducks leg problems and really helped with her mobility. It's all pure with no nasty additives and brilliant for all animals - ducks, dogs, horses, cats, you name it! Thought I'd...
Apologies if i'm posting this in the wrong place - I really wasn't sure where was best to post it!
I'm trying to list my stock in the Buy Trade Sell section but it won't let me.. I've read through all the rules which say that you have to be over 18, agree to all of the terms and conditions and...
Poor things! One of my ducks sits on the back of the other duck and when he gets out of the pool after this he's sodden! I'd suggest scooping them in to a towel to try and dry them off, hairdryer is a brilliant idea. Do you have a heat lamp? From when they were ducklings maybe? Could you bring...
No - I drink a little more than i give them, and I water theirs down as they love the taste of it! Feel free to private message me if you want to know where I get it from/how much I give them etc - when I order it, it comes with a cup to measure it out
my garden is fenced in and they free-range all day, however if i leave either of my back doors open - they're straight in the house! I think it is possible to teach them though - mine know the boundaries i.e. that they're not allowed in the back door leading to the lounge - if i'm within...
My pekin also has leg and hip trouble. Not to the extent of yours by the sound of it (which I am very sorry to hear about!) - it is something that has gotten better with the help of Aloe Vera Gel drink! I tried lots of different nutrients, food additives and powders etc but this is the one that...
I have two and they were born one day apart - they're 5 months old now. One of mine has been laying for over a week now but I haven't had anything from the other duck yet. I'm not worried - I think it's quite normal. I read up about it when I was worried that neither of them had started laying...
I'm relatively new to the duck world - my two are about 5 months old and I the only experience I have of this is when they get something stuck in their beaks, then they violently shake their heads - it's quite worrying! I really hope you get this sorted and that the ducks are okay!!
I'd never heard of it either until recently! I give her the gel drink thats used for joint function and maintenance, and for mobility. Because its all pure and natural it can be given to any pet as well as people - I drink it myself and know people who give it to their dogs and horses! Its got...
