Does anyone know how often an adult Indian Runner should molt?
I have a total of eight. Two of them are only 3 months old. One is 1 years old. The rest of them are 2 years old. All of the 2 year olds have molted at least once. However 1 of them, my chocolate, is on her 3rd molt in 9 months. Is...
I live in NE Oregon and I'm looking to buy Magpie Ducklings but I can't seem to find any place online that sells them sexed or doesn't match them 1 for 1. I'm only in the market for 4 or 5 total. So I really need to find a place that I can buy them sexed (1 drake and the rest hens). None of the...
One of my Indian Runner girls, Cheesecake, apparently has sprained her right leg/foot. She is 12 weeks old. She can walk a bit on it, starts to limp, then eventually picks that foot off the ground and hops.
The last couple of days I have locked her and the other girls in the pen and let the 2...
So one of my male runners is making a whistling/high pitch squeak. I think I have figured out which one. I have noticed that it kind of does a rearing up and appears to sneeze when the noise comes out. Then all my boys run around quacking at each other. Like they aren't sure what is going on...

I bought a female runner duck one month ago. I'm not sure how old she is; only that she is full grown. I figured with being transported a 4 1/2 hour car drive and getting use to our yard it might take a bit for her to relax. Plus it didn't help that a week later we lost our only other female...
I'm a first time duck owner. We bought 4 ducklings April 21st. They are now going to be 14 weeks old. George, one of the black runners, is getting the curls on his tails; 2 to be exact. Ringo, the other black runner, has a slight curl to his tail feathers but his are not looking anything like...
One of my ducks was taken last night at 2:30am from our duck house last night. I am going to assume she is dead. :( What is concerning me is I am not sure what took her. There is very little evidence left; a couple of feathers (left on top of the 3' fence) and some blood spots (on the brush)...
I have found & bought a white female runner duck and a blue duckling! I used Craig's List of all things. It was to support a local 4H club student there. So it was a win-win!
Since I cannot figure out how to delete my post I would just give an update!
