Can anyone take in Pekin ducks around El Paso? One of my friends messaged me about taking in ducks, and when i asked why he said his parents gated community had pekin ducks in their 5 lakes, and they bred quickly, and now there are 50 of them. Apparently they cannot take care of this many, smh...

Sorry if this has been discussed before. Is there any bedding I can put in my duck run that doesn’t need to replaced? Like wood chips but not as sharp? I see people use pine shaving (I use them in my coop) but those seem to have to be replaced and stay wet for a long time. Any suggestions?

Feeling like I need some cuteness in my life, so please add your best ducks/ duck pics. Here are my babies. Whose your favorite?

My drake, Koi, has Bumble foot. he was inside for a week, while his foot was wrapped. i couldn't keep his feet dry as he would spill water or step in a poop pile and his wrapping would always get dirty eventually. i treated his feet, but they were pretty big. i put him back outside, but i...

I had though the mature drakes were being ok well I built the run while I built the run, but he just pinned down one of my unmatur hen and I chased him off then he went to his girl and try to pin her down but I grabbed him. Him and koi are in the brooder box, as this happen less than 2 min ago...

I just got 3 more ducks, 2 drakes and a duck Ancona, (uneven number- planning to make separate runs for hens as I have 2 drakes and a hen already) and her owner said she was laying every morning. Hi got her yesterday, but I couldn’t find an egg this morning. Did she not lay because of the stress...

I got Ancona ducks today, but I took the extra drake so he wouldn’t be lonely and so he couldn’t bang her chickens and kill them anymore. And now I think one of my Rouen girls is a boy because of his quack has been raspier than ever. So that means I have 2 Rouen males and 2 Ancona males. I am...

I am taking in 2 Ancona’s, a Duck and a drake. I have a male Rouen and 2 Rouen hens. I am planning to get 2-4 more females. My rouens where born in late June, and the anconas were born in February. The Ancona hen just started laying this week, and my rouens have gotten their oil feathers and are...

Hi! I am taking two Ancona ducks, a drake and a hen, but the seller still has a drake left that I cannot take. Where do I find the state forum to post for him for Texas and New Mexico? As I could not take all of them, I wanted to help the owner find the last one a home. She had to give them away...

I had four rouen ducks who are about 3 months old. Yesterday I got home from school and one of them was dead. He had no bite marks but the feathers on his lower back were ripped out about the size of a hand. it may have been my dog, but there were no teeth marks, and i don't think it was the...

my ducks have started to spend their days outside. we have weeds in our backyard, and they love eating them. today i noticed their poop was green. is this just because there is a sudden influx of green food rather than their standard duck pellets or are they sick or are those certain plants bad...
