This darling little girl is a rescue. She had a serious joint infection, but has been off antibiotics for at least three months. Recently her once gray feathers have taken on a brown tone, and her new white feathers look pink! She eats mazuri waterfowl food and likes a limited amount of...
Thank you! He's spending time with a friend while we are out of town, but I will let you know if he still needs a home after Nov 9! Your flock sounds perfect. Thanks again
Oh, hello! I just saw your post! I am in Port Aransas, about 200 miles south. I think I have found a home for him in the next town over. If it doesn't work out, though, I'd like to bring him to meet your birds. Thank you so much for your reply, and I hope it's OK if I need you!
Due to a fox and coyote problem, this boy has been outdoors only with humans, and indoors at night. He's very friendly and sweet, but he needs some ducks to bond with! I would be willing to bring him to you to see if he would work out with your flock. If not, I'd take him back. Thank you...
So Sorry for you. We had what we assumed was a mama fox take two of our ducks a couple of years ago. They were perfectly secure at night but both were taken midday. I saw the fox at the edge of our pond watching our remaining ducks who were quietly sitting in the middle of the pond as quiet...
Male Cournix Quail needs other quail. He walked up on the street and asked to be taken home, but no one has claimed him. His roommate for the last four months has been a duck. Anyone?
Sweet Pekin duckling, probably male, was dropped off to me when he was about 2 weeks old. He is happy and healthy, but living with dogs, cats and goats--no ducks. Due to a predator problem he has been sleeping in the house but plays outside all day. He is very sweet and sociable, and would...
I'm so sorry for you. I had a red fox problem, mid-day, last spring. I too thought the wolf and coyote urine was keeping my ducks safe, so I thought it was probably a momma fox trying to feed babies. Once she found our little flock, she boldly came back again and again. I kept the ducks...
Yes! At first I thought my Dilly Duck was choking, but she barks likes the dogs when they bark, at meal times, and when she is excited! Sometimes when a car pulls in the driveway, if the dogs bark. None of the other ducks bark, tho! I think you have very smart ducks that have learned a...
Yes, looks like she's a crested pekin / pekin cross. The true cresteds have a nice big pompom on their heads. Flossy's is pretty little, so she's probably a cross. They are both darling. Enjoy them!
Hi, I've not had luck with Pekins sitting long enough to hatch eggs, but last year my girl did try. She even got a couple boys to sit on eggs while she took a break. Pretty cute! Then everyone lost interest. So...we ended up with eggs in the incubator.
Hi. I have two male ducks that double team my little pug mix. They get her into a corner and peck at her till she squeels for help. I don't think my boys are protecting a darned thing, but they sure have fun at doggies expense! ...do you think by picking up the duck after he attacks that he...
Hi, yes, I'm giving B Complex and he likes to swim twice a day. And today the foot actually opened a little during massage, so I'm hopeful. He's an inside duck right now. Not out with the other ducks yet, but maybe one day soon.... Thank you for the reply.
