Does anyone know about herbs/spices for ducks? I saw something online somewhere that recommended small amounts of oregano or garlic or turmeric as supplements to address various ailments, and I wondering if those were true, and if there were other herbs I can grow at home for them to snack on?

We talked it over last night, and we're going to try to find a new home for one of the drakes. We don't really have a good way to keep the flock separated long term while still keeping everyone safe and happy, and Azula deserves a better life than Zuko is letting him have. I had thought that...

The goop either was or appeared more fluid when I got home from work a couple hours ago. We ran some warm saline over both eyes. The bend of his wing; this is new damage His poor wing feathers are all chewed up and broken. They were pretty tattered last year too, but nowhere near this bad...

I'll try to get one if we can catch him tonight

One of my runners has what looks an awful lot like an eye infection; pale green goop on the inside corner of both eyes, one more than the other. Anything I can do to help him heal up? He's also a bit tattered in the wing and tail feathers, I think from our other drake :/

Is it just me, or are the white and fawn Indian Runners noticeably more ridiculous than the other color varieties? I've only got 12 runners, so my sample size isn't great, but every time one of them is talking way too loud about nothing, or talking with their bill buried in a mud puddle, or...

Man, no one seems to have any of the fancy runner colors anymore

Ah! I should have mentioned, I need all girls. It looks like Crackle will only send me 3 if one is a boy, or if the whole group isn't sexed. Metzer might be good, if they're in CA... I'm in WA so it wouldn't be toooooo terribly far to ship...

Husband says I can get a couple new ducks for my birthday! Anyone have a recommendation for where I can get like 3 good Indian Runner peeps? :wee

Well, that sounds terribly unpleasant...

Oh no! What would I do to treat that?

I can try... none but the goose are particularly amenable to being picked up

That's kind of what I was wondering about

Just the two, with 7 females. They'll pigpile on the same female pretty regularly, so I know there's some competition between them, but I've never seen Zuko actually pecking him or grabbing his wings. And even the pigpiles don't last long, because the goose is a super vigilant chaperone.

One of my drakes, Azula, has had some suuuper chewed up wing feathers all year, and I have no idea why. No one else in the flock looks like this, and he seems totally healthy otherwise, but his poor wings are a total mess! I kind of thought it might be our other drake pecking at him, but I...

I like the 3 totally different goose poses!

I love picture threads!!! Here's my gander, Ganon. He's a giant ham!!!

I'm so sorry for your loss, and I hope your little peepers make it through the hatch

What luck!!! It's so wonderful to see them safely home!!!
