Hello again. I just wanted to give an update on Aflac. He is sick, and was put on antibiotics. Tetracycline, 400-800mg per gallon of water everyday all day for 7-14 days. He has been on them now for 3 full days, and has made some great improvements. he is breathing a little better, his feet are...
also, he is has regular feed, i bought him a food supplement to go in it, as well to increase the B's and other vitamins, along with millet seeds, and cabbage. the ducks only get a small portion of the veggies as part of their meals most of their food is in the duck feed and supplement. oh and...
yes i am using the nutri drench in water, i have him on probiotics electrolytes, brewers yeast and the apple cider vinegar tabs....... i have just noticed a mucous in the corners of his mouth..... i have finally found a vet that treats birds and i am taking him there first thing in the morning...

Ms. Lydia,
He seems to do better for a bit, following a long swim in warm water. However, I was wondering, when he flaps his wings out, he is slow and a little jerky in pulling them back into his body. It almost looks as if he is either using them for his balance, or they are getting stuck and...
Ms. Lydia,
I would like to say thank you for the advice. the list of appropriate foods i was given had spinach listed on it, and now that you have given me different information, i will make they do not get that in any of their food. Can you provide some ideas of proper veggie bites they can...
I have white pekin duck, about 8 months old. a few days ago he and my female mallard became startled and went to run, when my pekin duck tripped and fell down. since then he has been limping and falling down a lot. he seems to do well in the tub of water, which usually room temperature. he is...
