Update for anyone looking at this in the future: He (no eggs so I am going with “he” now) is still with us and it will be a year in June. He still is not very interested in hanging out with our ducks and chickens but doesn’t try to fight them anymore. He still mainly stays perched on our back...
I am so sorry, I am just now seeing this.
Mouse, the BBWD, is still with us and I really do not think s/he is going to fly away. S/he is extremely attached to us. S/he free ranges during the day but never leaves the backyard (mainly stays on the porch watching me through the glass door) and...
My sister, a vet at the SPCA, asked me to care for a baby black bellied whistling duck that had been brought to the shelter. When I got him/her, he/she had already imprinted on humans and wanted nothing to do with my ducklings or baby chicks. Three weeks later and he/she is still by my side...
Wow, really? With this much damage? She has been living and hanging out with the momma and the baby since hatch. I can’t believe she would turn on him like this. So sad.
1 month old duckling (Keith) was outside with his Momma and the rest of our muscovy flock (free range during daylight). We noticed that his Mom was fighting with another female in our flock. After breaking it up we found the baby on the other side of the barn hiding and wounded. We gave him a...

She has duck friends older and younger, but she is the only one...
Thank you so so much for taking time out of your day to respond! I care a lot about her (?😀) and have been stressed all day about this!! I am going to sleep so much better tonight!
Hi all,
I have a Muscovy with angel wings. I watched YouTube videos on how to bind, but I am not sure I did it right!? I can confirm that it is not too tight, as I have been monitoring for the last 3 hours and s/he is happily eating, drinking, napping, walking and of course pooping. The left...
Omgosh this is upsetting!
Thank y'all so so much for responding. I guess we need to get Annabeth a sister so that she wont be alone when Napoleon and Fancy get re-homed
So what do I look for when finding her a sister? Like how do y'all know they are boys?
Hey y'all,
My dad recently gave me 3 baby chicks. We love them all and cannot believe how much fun they are! However, in New Orleans we are not allowed to have roosters. My in-laws live in a rural area in north Louisiana and they have a friend who will take my roosters for me and treat them...
