    Terramycin for Ducks?

    So I posted on here a few days ago that some type of predator was getting into our coop and killing the chickens. It tried attacking one of our ducks and now his eye looks infected.

    Murderous Chickens??

    Okay so I don't know what is going on but in the span of a week my mom and I have found 2 dead hens. The first was a young Houdan, pretty new to the flock so I'm guessing they were already picking on her and things got out of hand. My mom found her practically mauled. Just this morning when I...

    Incubator without temperature?

    So I'm very new at incubating and hatching eggs, but know how to take care of chicks once they're born. I was given an old incubator but there's no temperature gauge. I know the temperature is important, but is there any other way/suggestion to keep an eye on temperature? It also doesn't turn...

    Bored Duck

    Really need some quick advice. I have a disabled duck. I don't know exactly if she was born disabled or if she had a case of splayed leg that went untreated. Either way, she can't walk. So she lives in the house in a little box (much like a homemade cage). We had to put wire around the box...

    Lonely Duck

    Hey guys, So I need some advice and I feel like this is really the best place to get it. I have a rouen duckling who's about 10 weeks now. I'm pretty sure he had splay leg when he was younger and it went untreated for about 4 weeks (I looked everywhere but didn't find out about splay leg...

    Cut on Foot

    Hey guys, One of my ducks got out of their designated area and cut part of the webbed part of his foot! I think it was on the metal fencing that he snuck through. What should I do to treat his foot? So far all I've done is soak it in hydrogen peroxide.

    Walking on hocks, niacin deficient, should I cull?

    Hi all, I have a month old rouen duck who has been walking on his hocks for about 3 weeks now. We got him and 3 others from TSC and in the beginning he was the strongest, but after a few days he was weak and couldn't walk. Granted this is my first time raising ducks so I didn't know about...

    Crippled Duck

    Hey everyone! So my family recently bought 4 baby ducklings for the first time. A few days later though and the one that at first seemed to be the strongest, could barely move. He was lying on his side and not doing much, and for about a week stopped developing/growing. We started giving him...
