Hi!
I picked up a female pekin from my friends farm. He asked if I could help cure her bumblefoot and then just keep her. I got her home and looked and she had a feed bag string wrapped around her leg and it basically had become part of her body! Cutting off circulation and causing an...
Hers the whole crew this am. They are VERY friendly. Come right to you and don’t mind being picked up. The two ducks are male because I just listened to their voices. Sound just like my male pekins. And the chicken is still peeping like a baby. When I go to rehome.. should I say they are khaki...
Hi!
My sister called me today telling me two ducks and a chicken were pecking/knocking on her glass door at her work! They gave them some crackers and got them secure. They are on an extremely busy road.
They are very friendly. I have them in a secure spot on my farm for the night. I have...
sorry one last question... there is some heat in that foot. I have spread out her toes and braced them but I do have a few antibiotics here in case there is an infection. Can turkeys have clindamycin or clavamox? I have some here in oral form that I got this year for my dog but both are unused...

Any one know what breed this is?
Hi!
My large pekin is so quiet (a few weeks older) and very raspy and whispery. I thought the little one in this video may be a male as well? But I can tell if I am imagining a light honk.. possibly female?
This is Sooo helpful!! I really appreciate the thorough response. I wasn’t giving as much niacin as you recommend so I will up it a bit. And I will get the vitamin as well. And yes! Lots of warm baths. I plan to visit the vet this week since it hasn’t improved much but your advice has given me a...
Hi,
I have been searching through the forums but I keep seeing posts about younger ducklings having leg issues. My pekin is 4 weeks old and started having issues standing and walking.. it appears to be one leg/foot in particular. I have gathered that it was caused from a niacin deficiency...
