    13 out of 26 Runner eggs didn’t internally pip. ? Advice pls!

    Thank you for your reply! Yes I had a Govee and second thermometer in there. That’s why I bumped it to 100.5 - Govee says it’s actually 99.5. Yes too many to lose. It’s sad. I’m in another lockdown right now. And noticed one duckling popped but couldn’t break thru the membrane … I wonder...

    13 out of 26 Runner eggs didn’t internally pip. ? Advice pls!

    Hi there. I locked down 26 Runner eggs. All looked great - 12 had internally pipped when I locked down. 12 of out 26 hatched great. The remaining eggs never internally pipped. We opened two - beautiful fully formed ducklings. Can anyone shed any light on why half of my ducklings didn’t pip or...

    Hello :) need advice on this “tissue”?? That came out with my ducks poo..

    Hi All! U guys are awesome for offering help and advice! Thank u!!! I reached out to several rescues re: Hazel. We aren’t concerned about infection of any kind right now… sounds like it could be intestinal wall shedding (normal but scary to see!!) I have seen no more since, no worms, mites...

    Hello :) need advice on this “tissue”?? That came out with my ducks poo..

    I’m reaching out to people who may be able to help/offer advice. My little Runner (Hazel - the one I rescued from that farm this summer). She healed up amazing 💗 However the past few days started limping so I brought her inside 4 days ago to stay in a kennel with daily swim time. No...

    I have to share!!! My Hazel - I’m giving her Vit B Complex - going well. She walks better already but I have noticed she walks on her tip toes … I suspect her odd gait is simply her genetics. BUT!!!! I have amazing news! Background - i rehomed my beloved duck Monkey because he wanted to mate...

    Rescued a very neglected Indian Runner.. need advice pls

    Well. I tried my best. Put the vitamins on peas, pellets etc. she will not touch any of it. 😀 a bit suspicious of everything, that one. Ha. I decided it was for her own good so I scooped her up last night and used the dropper to put the meds right down her throat. I’ll do it for a few days...

    Rescued a very neglected Indian Runner.. need advice pls

    Oooh ok. I also have Vit B complex in liquid form. Question. How do I ensure she gets it? She doesn’t drink from the water buckets (fresh twice a day). She only drinks from the pool when swimming or the fountain …. Must I separate her? I feel that will stress her out. Yes she is so...

    Rescued a very neglected Indian Runner.. need advice pls

    Goodness. I didn’t realize an older duck could all of a sudden develop a Niacin deficiency- I thought it was something you treated when they were young! Well shoot. I can do that! I’ll go back to brewers yeast in the pellets every day. Thank you for the response.

    Will my Runner drake learn to love my Muscovy hen?

    Interesting hey! Well I hope that they learn to love her. Willow follows her a lot to hunt in the yard .. maybe it’ll just take time.

    Will my Runner drake learn to love my Muscovy hen?

    Thanks!!! I have actually had a male Muscovy for ages. They don’t show any interest in each other at all…. Sally (my female) spends more time with the Runners than my Male Muscovy :)

    Yes I know 💗 she really loves Willow - black Runner. She used to chase him around …. Lol. Hopefully with time …. If not, I suppose I’ll get her a Muscovy gal pal. 💗

    Will my Runner drake learn to love my Muscovy hen?

    Hi there! I have 2 lovely, gentle Runner drakes. And 2 lovely females (1 Runner & 1 Muscovy). For ages now, they all get along fabulously 💗 My question is - my Muscovy hen is in love with one of my Runners. But they don’t seem interested in her at all.. despite her shameless flirting lol...

    When do Muscovy drakes start hissing & huffing

    Ok. I decided to be patient. He’s definitely a boy. Starting to hang out with and bob with the boys. He’s also HUGE to my female Muscovy. At what age should I clip his wing? He’s just beginning to get a bit off the ground now….. Also- totally not related. :) we use pipe for their...
