Introducing Duckling to Duck
The magpie is adorable i really hope my duck takes to her. In the pen since my duck was sitting her grass grew really fast so the baby looks like shes walking through a jungle lol. -
Introducing Duckling to Duck
Well my girlfriend and i both raised my duck and she only attacks my girlfriend when broody or the one time she hatched babies. So i find it funny she doesn't trust her while broody. My full grown duck is a muscovy. She's very protective and doesn't like any living thing other then me, my drake... -
Introducing Duckling to Duck
Thanks for your response, no she is not on eggs anymore when i went to see her earlier i brought some worms and she ran at me with joy and while she chowed down i removed the eggs and replaced the bedding. Then she followed the new baby and they both went in their house and she sat again and the... -
Introducing Duckling to Duck
Long story short my drake passed away leaving my Duck all alone. I tried getting her a new friend but she rejected that idea. Now i got her a baby and she likes it and isn't aggressive towards it. Only thing is i have 2 problems. One she is still broody from sitting on eggs so all she wants... -
Are any of these fertile?
Cool, so I let my duck keep the fertile ones but I put one in my homemade incubator any advice for that? Temp is 99°-100°F with minimal flowing air. -
Are any of these fertile?
Ok, at what day should I be able to 100% confirm fertility? -
Are any of these fertile?
Thanks for your input I knew some weren't fertile, the ones that have a dark area literally look like that in person hard to see anything is that normal? Will a dark space be better? Also forgot to mention they're Muscovy eggs -
Are any of these fertile?
I doubt any of them are but after a year of only 2 being fertile I don't know. They are 14 days since my duck started sitting. -
Getting my Duck a new friend.
I have 3 ducks total, 2 male 1 female, 2 of them are seperated from my other male for obvious reasons, but my 1 boy needs a friend since i cant be home all the time. Would a goose be ok as a friend? If so, could the goose be male and i wouldnt have any problems? Side notes, my male thats alone... -
Is there something wrong with my duck?
Yep, could you recommend some vitamins? -
Is there something wrong with my duck?
I forgot to mention i have taken a sample to a vet and they said they found nothing. I thought it was worms too. When shes laying she has food 24/7 in front of her but she just got done sitting so wont be laying for a lil bit. She does spend almost all her time in or around her pond though. -
Is there something wrong with my duck?
I have a female Muscovy and for a few months every time she poops it's all liquid like diarrhea. Shes fed staple food at night 16%, and gets mealworms, peas, carrots, tomatos, grapes, etc every now and then. My girlfriend thinks this happens because she lays eggs, but she does this weeks after... -
No Fertile Eggs
Yea I know it's puzzling. Maybe my boy doesn't know what hes doing. As a baby he was unable to walk well and had undeveloped lungs and my vet said he wouldn't live to be 4 months old, but i proved my vet wrong because hes over a year now. His lungs developed and he walks just like the other... -
No Fertile Eggs
Yes i cracked 11 eggs after letting the female sit on them for 2 weeks. None of them were fertile. They eat their staple food and get worms tomatoes peas grapes and carrots on a daily basis. -
No Fertile Eggs
I have to scovies male and female both a little over a year old and they mate a lot. My female has had 2 clutches of eggs now and both times there were no fertile ones. Is there anything I can do to help the eggs get fertile? Like I said they mate a lot and they're with each other 24/7 -
Introducing new ducks to each other
thanks, yea my greatest fear is my pekin trying to have his way because he is very rough. Could you reccomend a breed for me to get for him? The breeds i'd really like are either another scovy, silver appleyard, ancona, or a runner. -
Introducing new ducks to each other
I currently have 2 scovies male and female and 1 pekin male, all 1 year old now. The scovies have their own pen so the males never fight or get the chance to anyway. And the pekin is not a loner he goes everywhere with me and sleeps in my room in the house at night. I'm thinking about getting... -
Three day old ducklings . Any ideas of type ?
Looks like a Pekin. I got my ducks a day old and 2 were identical to yours from what i can see and i ended up with 1 Pekin and 1 White Muscovy. -
Picky Picky Eaters!
My ducks were the same way, on a different brand tho. Try mixing both feeds 50/50 that's what got mine to convert now they eat anything I give them. -
What breed/sex?
Silver Appleyard female google it and you'll see tons of them identical, the color of the head tells you shes a girl
