This duckling was just born last night. Today, I noticed that it only had one eye open. The other seems to be sealed shut and under it, there seems to be a small lump. It’s hard to see in pictures but I do hope it helps somewhat.
What can I do? Did it get burned by the heating element in the...
Hi all,
I am currently incubating 8 Rouen duck eggs. I had my first pip Sunday night (Day 24) so I put my incubator on lockdown. I have a forced air, humidity throughout incubation averaged out to about 55, temperature 99-100. My humidity is around 75ish right now. Yesterday, I noticed three...

Hi all. I am hoping someone could help me here.
I wanted to know if Rouen Ducks are allowed to be hatched and kept in Florida. I haven't been able to find anything regarding them. I am pretty sure I have seen them chilling with the muscovies around a pond. Only searches about Mallard ducks...
Hi all. I am new here! I’m very excited to join this forum.
A duck that made her nest in our mulch bed hasn’t shown up in days. We haven’t seen her in our home security cameras in four days. We took the eggs in, bought an incubator from someone on social media, and we are now trying to hatch...
