    Whistling noise when breathing?

    Hi everyone!! So when my duck breathes a whistling noise comes from his nose. He has pretty much always done this since he was a duckling, so I haven't thought much about it. However, recently I feel like it has been getting worse. Any idea on why this could be happening? He has access to water...

    It feels squishy, like a balloon kinda. And it looks red too. I think I posted a picture of it earlier in this post. There's no feathers on that part either. I haven't tried giving her a bath yet, should I?

    Mites??

    Truthfully I'm not really sure about a lot of that. I got her from some lady I knew who has about 30 chickens on her farm and she gave her to me because my other chicken got really lonely when her coop mate died, so I'm not really sure how old she is and if shes ever been broody before. Shes...

    Bumblefoot

    Can I use iodine with color and can I put him in the bathtub with epsom salt? Will he get sick if he drinks the water? And if it's not bumble foot will the iodine hurt him at all? Sorry if those are silly questions, I'm new to ducks! Thank you

    Breeding

    I have them in different pens, but I let them free range in the yard during the afternoon. Up until now I had let them free range together. Should I let them out separately now? And will he calm down after this season is over or do I need to let them out separately from here on out?
