HELP PLEASE! All the bad things at once...EGG BINDING
So, aside from my disabled duck Gollum, all of my other ducks were acting completely normal until yesterday when I saw my khaki panting. Today she is acting normally, but her belly is making really loud noises and I found GREEN poop in the run today. I am guessing it's from her. One of my rouens...- bsides2007

Calling all duck poop experts! Black duck poop!
I've seen this in the coop here and there, and most of the time when I see it, it's more of a chocolate syrup poop (from what I understand this is normal). Anyway, today I found poop that was syrupy and nearly BLACK. I mixed in some water to check the color of it, and there's no red in it at all...- bsides2007

Mystery illness (Smeagol the rescue duck)
Smeagol and Gollum have finished their course of antibiotics and I have seen no consistent results. I have NO idea what this could be.

Hello everyone! Well, Smeagol and Gollum are now about 5 or 6 weeks old approximately.

Rescue ducklings (Niacin/riboflavin deficiency)
Hey all! I have recently taken in some "rescue" ducklings that are approximately 3-4 weeks of age. Today is my 4th day with them.

Best Duck feed?
Hi everyone :) I am happy to say that I am now (finally) a duck mom! I have been feeding all of my ducks organic and non-gmo feed from the beginning, but am curious to get other opinions on types of duck feed. I know there are better options than Dumor (even though it's organic) but I'm stumped...- bsides2007
