    Baby duck with a bad eye

    I have a pekin that was injured by a wild animal when she was a month old. She had been bitten around her right eye and when I took her to the vet they gave me polysporin, like Going Quackers suggested. They also had me administer regular eye drops like Thera Tears. I alternated between those...

    Trouble within the Flock, Need Advice!

    Something very interesting happened yesterday. I separated the blue Swedish drake, Stan, from the flock for a couple of days. That left all of my girls and the young harlequin drake, Archer, with my other older drake, Howard. Howard is pretty good with all of the girls and doesn't mind Archer...

    How MEAN are your ducks?

    I am having a similar problem with my ducks. I have 1 pekin (hen), 4 anconas (hens) , 2 welsh harlequins (drake and hen), and two blue swedish (drake and hen).

    Trouble within the Flock, Need Advice!

I noticed that once I introduced my ducks to our pond they too would only stick to the shallow areas to bathe and forage. I wondered why this was until I...

    Post Your Pekin duck pics here

    I have one pekin named Sunny. She is the lone survivor of a group of 6 ducklings that were attacked by a predator. She is missing part of her left wing and the tip of her bill, but is a strong resilient girl and the leader of a small flock of anconas.

    Pekin Duck Club!

    We don't know for certain, but we believe it was a raccoon that snuck through a hole in the roof of the area they were in. Since then we have refortified their pen and built a coop that latches shut for added protection.

    My injured Mallard - any advice most appreciated

    I have a pekin who was the lone survivor of a predator attack she had had her wing torn off so first let me tell you I know how you must feel. First as long she is eating and drinking your off to a great start. An injured animal that refuses food or water is a bad sign, but you don't have to...
