    Help! possible sick duck.

    My 7 month old Pekin just started laying about 3 weeks ago. It has been daily until this week. Monday morning I found nothing. Tuesday I found it after work and today nothing again. She was acting odd today, not as happy and chatty as normal so I figured I'd try a warm bath to see if it would...

    Duck beak peeling!

    My duck has this thing where it looks like it is peeling when he gets it wet. When it's dry, it doesn't look so bad. Any ideas if this is bad or if there is something I can do for him?

    Biting duck

    I have an 11 month old Indian Runner male that likes to bite bare skin and my dog. Not always but it can be annoying and it can hurt. Anyone have any tricks to try to get them to stop?

    Smelly wet duck poop

    My pekin will poop normally but also will poop a dark wet smelly poop. Is this normal? Is it the food she eats? Or is there something wrong? Its not every time so I don't think its diarea but how do you know? Sometimes they get into the dry dog food and I don't know if that causes it or not.

    putting ducks away at night in the winter

    I was wondering what people do in the winter as far as putting your birds away. Soon it will be dark before and after I go to work. Currently I keep them in a predator proof pen and let them out to forge when I get home. I plan on expanding the pen to include foraging space before winter. What...

    Duck panting.

    Does anybody know why a Peking duck would be breathing though it's mouth like it is panting? Is there something wrong or a natural thing for them?

    Newer duck owner

    Hi. My wife and I recently acquired 2 ducks. One Indian runner and a Peking. We are doing our best to keep them happy. I built an outdoor coop/run for them but want to have them indoors too. They lived their first 2 months inside and seem to miss being with us.
