    Soft egg??

    This morning I found a regularly sized egg in the middle of the duck pool. After picking it up I realized that it has no shell! It was all squishy and leathery! She is in her third year of lay and this has never happened before! Or it could be possible that my 6 mo buff drake is really a duck...

    Hi I found an excellent waterer from strombergs if anyone needs one. I plan on going away a lot this year and needed an auto waterer deep enough for them to dunk their heads in and I thought others might want to look into it...

    Mouse in coop?

    Hi, I have recently been having a problem with mice getting into my duck coop. They dont eat the feed as I've checked and for some reason they don't. I put down sand today but will it keep them out? Also besides the disease concern is this a problem?

    Should they be separated?

    Hi, at my school we have 9 ducklings, 8males, 1 female, my teacher thought that the ducks would just decide that one male gets to be with the female but the others would just accept it and move on, is this true? Or will the males fight over the female?

    Can they live together?

    Hi, I have two full grown female Pekin ducks that live in a large coop and run in my backyard. In spring my dad said he would get me another duck for my birthday and I wanted to hatch and raise it. My question is if an Ancona duck, the breed that I want, could live happily with my two pekins...

    Lights at night?

    Hi! I wasn't sure where to post this but does anyone know if lights on at night by the duck coop would bother them? They have a place where they can go if they want it to be dark, I'd just love to be able to see them at night!

    Egg in the water?

    Yesterday when I drained my duck pond I found a dark grey egg in their pond! At first I thought that it was a rock but after closer examination I realized it's an egg! I've heard of ducks laying in the water but always thought it was a myth. So does this mean that my duck is sick or just weird?
