So now that our Rouen is full grown...she....is a he. 😂🤷🏻♀️ They always surprise you huh?
Well we have 2 female Mallards and of course with our Rouen drake "going thru it," there is a lot of.....flirting and all that going on. But one day, Babbi, our Rouen drake, the duckling that this thread...
Ok so here's another question off of that......
So as of right now, our girls just lay.....everywhere and anywhere, don't care after that....😅. So if by some chance they do become viable, will they start to care about the eggs? Will they start to actually make and keep a nest? Will they...
I kno the flat as a pancake means mating and all that. They are watched even closer when we do have them outside and in the pool or lake....they go flat for us too just walking near them or sitting on the floor with them.....😅
Just don't kno why the other female will pick at the other one when...
Hello everyone. So, I've tried to look up the info I'm looking for, but I just can't find an exact answer.
I had an Ancona years back and she laid an egg almost everyday. ((Posted about her all that time ago......🥺...miss her))
Now....we have had 2 female domesticated Mallards....and then a...
Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've posted and it's sad to say I no longer have my duck. She passed away. But we just recently got a 6 month old pineapple conure back in November. And with any animal, I Kno it's a learning experience and you learn a lot as you go.
Here's my problem...
Yeah we've done that last year when she was like this
We've tried giving her the eggs she lays or her toys, but she won't stop til she has a hand. Lol....and I mean she won't stop. It's cute, but when it goes on all night, we can't move.
Even if we build up a nest of clothes, if we take...
Ok so Floki is almost 2yrs old and she beautiful and healthy......
BUT....She's driving us a bit CRAZY.....Lol....
This goes on all day, and yes....all night.
She HAS to have one of our hands, sometimes both. She pulls our hands underneath her and then picks and pulls anything around her to...
So back in April Floki got real sic.....put a thread up.
Took het to the vet and got antibiotics that got her well.
But her eye is still messed up.
While she was sic her right eye crusted over, got drops for it and it's now sunk in and the second eye lid is now working again. It looks cloudy...
Not regular, no
Oyster shells, yes. And she laid this morning fine.....and before that, no issues either
And egg binding I do look out for.
But I think (hope so after this 3 time) I kno why she was doing that. I've posted earlier that Floki has her 2 places she prefers to go to the...
So sometimes Floki does this.....and sometimes it's over in a few minutes, others a bit longer.
She's breathing, well.....odd....I guess.
It doesn't seem to be bothering her, if it is then you'd never kno it. And it comes out of nowhere.....
It's like short, sharp breaths
About 20seconds...
Wow.....thanks for bringing this up cuz I would've never thought of this issue until she molts again.
But off the top of my head, no idea. Guess it is something to look into.
And definitely post any info you find....I will too.
Guess you can start by asking the place you ordered her diapers...
Floki does the same!
In fact she just started, and I didn't notice it at the time.
She will only poop on the kitchen floor or the bathroom floor.
It's nuts.....she can spend hours on the bed with us and she's fine. When she has to go she'll start peeping and bobbing her head at me so I'll...
You too....lol....see
It's like one day they wake up and realize, holy crap, I finally know what my wings are for!
And it's nuts how crazy powerful their wings really are, when we pick Floki up and she flaps her wings it's almost like she can propel you forward with the power she has.
Hey sorry been gone a while. ..been working on Floki's diaper.
Which is DONE!
But Floki does the same thing. Some days she'll pig out all day and some days she will hardly eat any breakfast or dinner.
Outside foraging or not.
Nope, I'd say that is a good thing.
Oh and those videos were adorable! We've watched them a handful of times already, especially the one with Quackers getting off the bed. And don't worry....she'll get better at it.
Oh....and @Amykins I have stared to make Floki a diaper too....and, yep.....what ever piece I have in my hands....that's what she wants. So my husband has to play like defense.....I hope mine comes out as good as yours.
