Hey guys,
So my Pekin Drake Merry cut his leg on who knows what on the 8th of August. It became infected within the joint at the top of his leg - but we caught it very early. He was on antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory/painkiller for a month and we saw some serious improvement. He was...
Hey guys..
My male attacked my female (His leg is hurt and is unable to balance and mate with her so i assume he's a bit frustrated)
Essentially he scratched her eye really badly. She is lucky to keep her eye as he mainly hurt the eye lid and scratched the cornea slightly. The vet prescribed...
Hey guys so I have a Pekin who is 7 months old. Vets don't know what is wrong with her as she is really small and has had leg problems since a baby. She randomly stops eating sometimes. This is the third time in 4 months where she has zero interest in food and looks super down (normally she's...
Hi everyone. I am seriously needing some advice and comfort here. My baby Pekin Pippin is two months old. I went to visit him at the farm I took him to on Saturday (knew he would be happier in an open space with a large pond etc) and was absolutely devastated to see him limping so badly that he...
We rescued baby pippin the Pekin 2 weeks ago. Had a very rough start to life. He's doing so much better though. Had a slight niacin deficiency where he couldn't walk for three days but I gave immediate supplementation of niacin, riboflavin and all sorts as soon as I noticed a problem. He eats...
I took this photo while baby duckie was stretched out sleeping on my lap. He's inside raised and a very loved little baby. Please advise :) he's also getting the right food. Poop is normal looking and drinks plenty water. Could be dry air? Growing?
Duckling 5 days old wasn't walking today and now keeps stretching legs forward in distress and looks like he's having fits because he's stuck with his legs forward going all over the place. Help me please! Walked fine yesterday!!
Help!!! Please! I can't find anything!! My duckling of 5 days couldn't walk today and so I gave a niacin supplement and now tonight he is walking on this "knees" and stretching legs forward and almost looks like he's having fits because his legs just go forward and all over the place!!! Please...
Hi everyone, new here.
Here is my concern: My baby pippin is only 5 days old, he (she?) was fine yesterday, walking around, swimming and eating and happy and I noticed today he couldn't walk and would fall over. His legs are very weak so I have noticed I am not providing enough niacin. So I...
Question: how long will it take for 5 day old duckling to be able to walk again (i've noticed him weak today, not walking. Was fine yesterday)
Long story:
This poor Ducking (about 5 days old now) was found close to death. Been looking after him (her?) and he's been doing better. Happy...
