I've got the same issue with my 4 year old crested duck (the one in my profile picture). He has minor seizures where he shakes his head and spins in circles, always clockwise, they happen randomly, sometimes often and sometimes they go away for a year. I'm currently looking for the Vitamin B...
first need to figure out how to feed them the Mazuri, my ducks are not interested. Im assuming it's because of the kibble size. They're used to crumble. Tried crushing up Mazuri with a hammer, no dice. that kibble is strong. lol
Hi all,
Rascal is a 4 year old Crested Appleyard drake who had been diagnosed with permanent neurological disorder. The vet was able to conclude this because he doesn't walk much anymore and sometimes has what looks like minor seizure episodes and because all his tests (blood, poop and Xrays)...
Both roofs are sloped for water runoff, the run is sloped towards the back wall. The plastic roof is wavy and I find that is great for rain runoff.

It took a while to design this duck mansion, I call it the Quackingham Palace
The shed is a modern, one slope roof, wood construction, featuring 1 large transom window for maximum light and 2 large windows for air circulation.

Vet suggested to keep her comfortable, keep offering favorite food and treat with anti inflammatory medication, but there's nothing that can be done to fix her. I'm just concerned about her going through this on an empty stomach, because that will kill her before anything else will...
The vet suggested to keep her comfortable for now and give her all the favorite treats. I tried. She just won't eat... :(
Vet also prescribed anti inflammatory medication as she had some inflammation. Maybe this will help to get her comfortable but not encourage appetite.
Good evening all,
I took my Daisy (almost 5 years old, crested silver appleyard)to the vet today because she wasn't acting like herself only to discover a large growth around the ovaries which is most likely ovarian cancer. Unfortunately its too late to do anything about it medically.
She...
I read about hormone implants for female ducks to stop egg production...figured there may be something for drakes as well.. I'll reach out to a vet. Thank you,
Is there a way to stop drakes to want to mate?
I have 6 pet ducks (3 pairs) oldest are 4 years old, i'm not interested in ever breeding them and i don't care for the egg production to be honest. They're just my buddies however they are all not getting along at this time of the year and have to...
Did anyone find out the answer to this? My duck also spins in circles and shakes his head violently. I try to pick him up but he freaks out even more...... Is that a seizure?
