Thanks for the idea owlflights! I'm going to invest in a couple of those!

Hi everyone! So we have 4 Jumbo Pekin ducks. We live in Vermont, so we get pretty heavy and cold winters here. I'm just wondering if we need to do any preparation for them for the winter? They have shelter they go in and out of all day and get locked in at night. Of course their pool of water...

Thanks! That's what I was thinking and hoping. You don't think a hawk or crowhatever would come take them during the day do you?

We have 5 Jumbo Pekin ducklings inside right now. Three of them are almost 3 weeks old (hatched August 1), two of them hatched August 8. They've been inside our house in a rabbit cage with a dropping pan underneath and a heat lamp above. We take them out every night and clean their dropping pan...

Yes, it does ease the pain a bit. I still can't stop thinking about him and his final hours of terror. :(

We had ordered 3 baby ducklings (female) before he died, and they arrived yesterday. Kind of bittersweet :(

The dog could not have done it. He was more afraid of the duck and didn't have any dried blood on him or anything, and would have destroyed more stuff. We don't have these beer cans other these color light bulbs anywhere on or near our property either. The girl was in her 30's and stayed at our...

Thank you. I am grieving so much :(

Hi everyone, It is with deep sorrow I must share that our dear Swedish blue, Nibble, has passed on. We came home monday evening to find him standing by his fence, not moving, with his skin eaten up all over his body, underneath his wings, etc. He was a bloody mess. He was left to die by...

The plan was not to only get him, he was the only who survived out of 10 that were set to hatch. Females ducks have been ordered but won't ship unail august 1st.

I forgot to add, Nibble is a Swedish blue.

We weren't going to put the ducklings with him, they stay inside with us until they are adults. I'll have to try the broom thing, I always worry about hurting him though!

I was thinking that could be the issue. We have ordered some ducklings to keep him company, they haven't arrived yet.

Hey all! So we finally got oup duck coop built and the fence and everything ready outside a month or two ago, and officially moved Nibble outside to live. He seems to love it, as expected. :) Our only issue, is he has turned mean! Whenever we go in his fence to unlock and open his coop door...

Now that the weather is warming up and spring is around the corner here in Vermont, we are beginning to think of the outside duck coop we are going to be making to get Nibble outside, and for his buddies when they are born and come home with us as well in April. We are thinking of making...

I guess anything is possible at this point! I'm not experienced in this at all, so I have no clue! He spreads and flaps them just fine though.

All good to know! Well, he ended up getting the tights off after 2 days and his wing didn't even look a little bit better so we are back at square one with nothing working...

Well, we did manage to get the nylons back on him and taped it some and he's kep that on all night so far. I read somewhere the angel wing thing can shorten their life span if not fixed? Is that true or just crazy talk?

Well tried the nylon thing...that didn't work either. I quit. I guess he's gonna have a ****ed up wing forever... :/

I didn't even see the link to the thread! Just checked it out, thank you!!
