My duck donald is a Harley Quinn welsh x blue Swedish she has a deformed beak that made us doubt if she would be able to adapt and survive a normal life but she just turned 1 and is thriving with her siblings!
They just finished there moult a couple weeks ago and none of my girls have been laying since summer there eating purina poultry feed and I’ll sometimes give them some extra nutritional yeast
My Harley Quinn welsh x blue Swedish 2 year old female duck has been standing off to the side and sometimes into there pen away from the other ducks witch she wouldn’t normally be with them she will shake and squint her eyes a little. I brought her inside for a Lukewarm bath and she was so...
This duckling hatched about 24 hours ago and I’m not sure what’s wrong with her she’s chirping and seems okay but she’s curling up and thinks she’s still in the egg what can I do? I’ve posted about this asking for help but nobody seems to be answering and I don’t wanna lose her!
All my girl ducks started making those noises and the boys were making a raspy less of a honk noise they were very quite to I don’t know if this is a normal duck thing but my girl ducks always grew a lot faster then the male ducks
I had this duckling hatch 24 hours ago and she’s been curled up as if she is still in the egg can someone please tell me what I can do to help her I’ve already been putting bedadine and water on her navel to keep it moist so I can close and so it doesn’t get infected
I know that I have the incubator at 99.6 and I’ve only been taking her out to but the treatment on her navel and to post the pictures but it was for a second my other ducklings that hatch fine go into the brooder as soon as there fluffy witch is around 91 and they were all fine
It was absorbed when she hatched just a big open navel it’s gotten smaller now and is dried up but her eyes are barley open and she just lays there and opens and closes her beak and yawing but she has a happy little chirp
The starter feed is the most important thing a duckling needs u should look on ordering some nutritional yeast or u can find something else with lots of niacin the neck is probably a issue from being weak from not getting enough niacin u can find some cheap on amazon or ur local drug store maybe...
This duckling hatched out around 12 hours ago and her navel was still open and there was some pink and light coloured flesh around it, I’m pretty sure it was what she hadn’t absorbed yet so I left her in to finish closing up. I had another duckling with the same problem and I put a drop of water...
She’s doing good! Her belly is closing up and she’s chirping a lot more! She doesn’t have any hatch mates yet but there coming soon my broody duck lays one egg and sits on it right away so all the eggs are about 1 day apart in incubation
