    Does my duck have bumblefoot?

    (Sorry, I didn't realize this forum was here and posted in the ducks forum first.) I noticed this afternoon that my 13-ish week old duck was holding one foot off the ground as he was standing and limping when he walked. I was afraid he wouldn't let me catch him to look at it and I didn't want...

    Pekin duck - given away already.

    I'm not sure of the appropriate way to note that things have been sold/traded/given away here, but this duck has gone to a great home with a giant pond and lots of other water fowl.

    Might have to rehome a very noisy KC!

    So I called city hall today, to find out whether or not we're legal, because this one Khaki Campbell apparently feels it is her duty to the world to quack non-stop...LOUDLY. lol I am not bothered by it, but I'm pretty sure my neighbors might not appreciate it and I really don't want them to get...

    Guess I didn't need to worry about the cat

    I posted about cats right before we got our ducklings, because I was afraid our cat might kill the ducks. Yeah, that was a stupid thing to worry about. Today while my daughter and I were sitting out with the ducks, one of them just started quacking and squawking, raised its wings and took off...

    Will swimming = mud pit?

    Okay, now that I've had more time to ponder what I really wanted to know when I asked a rather pointless question about pools vs. ponds a week or so ago (lol)..... I had figured we'd do the wading pool, since it's cheaper, and just relocate it every time I emptied it. The ducks have about a...

    That's not a quack!

    I have four khaki campbells and one pekin, all four weeks old. Two of them are not squeaking anymore, but they aren't quacking like any quack I've ever heard, either. They're just sounding like....uh, I hate trying to describe sounds, lol...sounding like when you push your finger down and slide...

    Tiny pond or kiddie pool?

    We don't have enough land to dig a large pond, so we're trying to decide between a little kiddie wading pool or one of those small ponds from Lowe's - maybe 90 gallons, I think. The pond is obviously more attractive and holds slightly more water, but how often do you think it would have to be...

    Waterer for duck house?

    What do you use to give your ducks water at night? They manage to make a mess from their water in everything I've given it to them - even those little chicken waterers. Somehow they even splash water everywhere from one of those. Is there anything you can use that will keep them from somehow...

    Is it true...sexing Khaki Campbell ducklings

    Is it true that developing a white spot on the neck is a definite indication of being a male...er, drake, drake. I have to get the lingo down. I read that on only one site, so I was pretty sure it's not true, but I am curious, as I got some unsexed ducklings at a local farm store and one has...

    Duckling with a red bald spot

    We just got five Khaki Campbell ducklings on Friday and one of has a red, bald spot on the back of its neck. Is this a serious problem and should we separate it from the others? (That feels so mean, but of course we would do it if necessary.) Thanks!
