ive been needing to make a bigger enclosure for my 2 ducks and i finally did it! ive been tight on money but after the an opossum got in their other cage i had to rush it. it is made of PVC pipe, chicken wire, and zip-ties. i anchored it down so it cant be lifted either. it is 15'x6'x6'...

i have 2 ducks, a boy and a girl. i know what that was going to bring sooner or later, i just thought it would be simpler. i just saw them trying to mate in the pool and if she lays fertilized eggs i would love to let them hatch but she is a pekin and that breed is known to have "bad mothers" so...

overnight, i keep my ducks in a kennel with an igloo and so far it has worked out just fine, but last night i heard them quacking really loud out of nowhere so i went out there to see what was going on and there was a young opossum near their cage! i immediately scared it over the fence but i...

this morning i went outside to let my ducks out and there was an egg in there! i'm like 99% sure its not fertilized bc my male is still pretty young and i havent seen them mate, even though she keeps displaying for him. i wasnt prepared for this yet so i wanted to ask before i did anything to it...

I was wondering if ducks ever stop making their baby noises when theyre older. My Pekin girl is getting to 6 months old right now, and she can quack reeally loud, but when she's talking to me and my boyfriend she peeps like she's still a baby ...I hope this is normal, because it's sooo cute!!

so i have been experimenting and trying to make my own diaper harnesses and they fit fine, but i was wondering if its important to keep the oil gland exposed. my ducks keep trying to preen and they get upset because they cant get to theirs should i do some alterations to keep it open? im sorry...

ok, i ordered some diaper harnesses from indoor ducks, but because they are having some problems, and i'm not sure if they'll be back in business, and i had an order with them so i was really bummed so i figured "why not try to make one myself??" so i got my sewing stuff together, traced my...

I am ready to start a new project for my ducks! right now I have a dog kennel with an igloo and a small kiddie pool for them but they need more space!(i take them out every day while i'm home to exercize so theyre not stuck in there too long each day btw) their area in my yard is only long and...

I've been looking around to see if i could find vitamin suppliments, good food and such for ducks but all the local places I go to just look at me like I'm crazy for having a duck, or they don't have anything specifically for ducks and want to sell me chicken food. I was wondering if anyone knew...

my female pekin is 5 months old so shes getting to the age where she will start laying eggs soon. she used to love the food i give her everyday, and lettuce was her favorite treat but lately she wont touch the lettuce OR her food!! she also keeps trying to steal the cat food. i know she is...

ok, alot of you have convinced me to start using diaper harnesses. when i first saw them, i thought they were ridiculous, but after manually scrubbing my entire carpet by random spots, i'm converting lol. i love having my girl inside so i am looking into getting her some diapers, but i am also...

i have a 5 month old female pekin duck. when i got her as a baby i should have gotten more to keep her company and i should have known better. shes always around me and my family so its not like shes completely isolated, but it feels like she would be happier with a duck companion. am i too...

My 5 month old female pekin duck has been shedding feathers like crazy since they came in. at first i thought she was just molting, but i'm really starting to worry that there may be something wrong with her. she does not have any bald spots, and her feathers arent thinned out. i just don't...

I have a 5 month old female pekin duck. i know shes getting close to that age where she'll start laying eggs, but i'm not sure exactly when that will be. I take her to the park to swim in the lake, but there is an abandoned male duck there who is very interested in her. the first few times i saw...
