Hi She seems to be doing better. Its been a week and she is back to eating how she was. She is still pooing quite liquidy but at other times it is more solid. Also it doesn't smell as much. She is acting normal, looking for bugs and eating grass. We have been putting some apple cider vinegar...

I have tried to take some photos but she wont let me come very close to her bum. She isn't acting normal, she is running away from me and last night she was jumping on her water bowl and a chair, which is unusual. She has also stopped eating like normal. She seems to be standing normally and the...

Hi guys. She has finished her antibiotics and from what I can tell that have helped. Her swelling has gone down quite a bit but is still there. Today during her bath, as I washed her bum she started breathing really heavy and scared me a bit. She stopped soon after, a few minutes. But now...

Thanks for all the tips. I will be sure to try the apple cider vinegar but maybe after her antibiotics are finished. I have checked her oil gland and it looks normal. Its yellow and oilly and doesn't seem clogged in any way. He gave me Amoxyclav 500. When I looked it up this is what I found...

But the lopsided bum stayed. It hangs low on that side. Today she made another egg in the early morning but by the...

I have a muscovy duck and she has been laying (we are in Australia so it is winter here). However she stopped laying for four days and began acting a bit strange. I have already lost one duck due to being egg bound previously so now I am always extra cautious with this duck. I monitored her...

Hi all, Thanks for the help. After reading your comments I read up on brooding in Storey's Guide to Ducks and now feel better about the situation. Thanks again

My female Muscovy duck is less than a year old. This is her second round of egg laying. She laying proper hard shelled eggs and has never made a soft-shelled egg. She is usually laughing and running around in the backyard, but for the last few weeks she has been stuck to her nest not leaving it...
