    Help please! New Sebastopol geese: blood in pen?

    Ok so I bought a quad of Sebbies a couple days ago. When I picked them up it was late, and dark, but seller thought she saw a couple of drops of blood in the yard they were in. Sure said they looked like fresh drops. Thought maybe someone had caught a toe on something, so she sent some bleed...

    Duck with broken bill

    Hey guys! Could really use your expert advice right now. One of my Swedish hens has a bad bill injury. I have no idea how or when it happened. She's one of my shy group of rescues so she won't often come up to me, unless I have treats, and even then, she stays back a bit. About a week ago...

    My Birds with their fancy fall plumage. :P

    Thought I would post a few of the birds. Been a while since I shared. Everyone always asks what colors my runners are. And for most of them, I have to answer...I don't know. lol They change colors with every molt, and don't seem to fit any one color or another. Both of the Runner drakes heads...

    Updated pics of the ducks

    The babies have all gone through their final molt, and I have to say I'm surprised. Two of the babies I thought were the products of my Pekin and Black Swedish, have gotten some odd color/patterns to their feathers. Sparrow has some weird pattern on her wing feathers I have never seen before...

    My duck suddenly has angel wing???

    I have a duckling that is now almost 8 weeks old, and is on 16% protein food, and he now suddenly appears to have angel wing?? Never had any of my babies get angel wing, and I heard it was mainly something to worry about when they're very young. Why so late, and can it be the food??? It's not...

    They are SO HUGE already...

    My gosh, seems like just the other day they were just eggs, now they're 4 week old ducklings, and enormous! Izzy has done a good job with the littles. And their color pattern is so interesting. Two of the ducklings also have the weirdest bill markings. Hmmm. Thought I would share a few pics of...

    Fun in the Sun for the duckies

    Everyone came out into the yard together for a play date, and the little babies had their first swim. Everyone's pools got dumped and filled, and everyone was having fun. Except the Pekins. Bella got grounded to his pen for biting the babies, and Georgie is still on her nest. Thought I would...

    Isolde's second clutch, HATCHED!--Update pg. 2

    After her bad luck with the first clutch of eggs, we did not expect the eggs she stole from our other duck to hatch. Surprise! We went out this morning, and we've got babies! She's got one out on the top of the nest with her, but the other one or two out so far she's still covering, so it's hard...

    My naughty, naughty ducks!

    Well, just when I thought the ducks were the best behaved pets I owned, they went and picked up a really bad habit!! There's a ball field that borders my property, and is separated by a steep hill and trees. The community uses it for kids ball games. Well the ducks have decided this is their new...

    Oh no! I think our Runner duckling is getting sick!

    One of our ducklings, Skillet, is under the weather. I picked him up yesterday, and he threw up. I didn't worry too much, because I know if you startle a duckling, or accidentally put too much pressure on their crop, they can throw up. Well today, he is sneezing a bit, and shaking his head. He...
