Nope he has been inside since at least January. And the feet didn’t start to look that bad until a month ago.

No vets close to me will see waterfowl. I have not but I will start them tomorrow. He is eating very well. He does have some trouble walking at times but I thought he maybe had arthritis from his age.

I got some updated pictures of him tonight to show.

It’s hard to determine if they are in pain or enjoying life or not. He eats fine plays in his water and likes to walk around so I feel he still has a good quality of life. Wow 12! That’s amazing! I’ve heard muscovies live for a while.

Yes he is 6 years old.

So I have had Artie inside the house for about 3 months now. He wasn’t doing awesome with the cold winter we had and at 6 years old I let him stay downstairs. He seemed to start with an upper respiratory infection with gross discharge from his nares. I treated with antibiotics and resolved...

I wonder if you would have to cover it in the winter time to prevent icing etc.

I have NEVER done or seen this before but that would be my suggestion.

Okay I went to google and found what I was trying to describe. It’s called chick curly foot. I’ve seen it in my book also. This method uses tape.

I’m having a heck of a time this summer with how hot it’s been! My fiancé is adding a “window” where I can put a removable fan and replace for the winter next spring to help. I feel bad for them but I don’t want to not lock them in and something could get them.

Yea I’m not sure I understand. If it’s the foot I wonder if you couldn’t like make a foot outline with paper clips and tape for him to walk on?

My females are louder then the males, does anyone else experience this?

Wow! That’s awesome. My keets alerted me to some stranger walking in the woods a month ago. We all have them so know how crazy they can sound but this was like SUPER crazy noise and there this dude was!

My guineas are with the chickens now as we have had a lot of predators this year and I don’t want to lose them. I free feed them. They all get like 10 scoops in the morning and if gone after work I add some more and then let them free roam supervised. I never really limit anyone except the...

I’ve never had this happen but I wonder if you couldn’t do the tape stirrup thing. Might not help with facing inward tho.

Sounds crazy but pet toothpaste! Easy to store in your pocket and a little dab of malt flavor is all they need!

Thanks for all the ideas everyone!

I have a flock of chickens so kind of the same things? They will be going in with the girls soon after the boys go to butcher

Evening all! I have two Toulouse geese that are I think around 3-4 months old. They are penned in a run while I am at work or away because we have been having a fox problem and I will not take a risk until he is caught! I’m afraid they will get bored when they are in the pen. What kind of...

I've had my new babies in with the big kids for a few weeks now and some nights I am still putting them in but they all have eventually gotten the hang of it. Just takes some time and more for some others. I still have a drake that for some reason just decides to not go in with his lady...
