We have hardware wire all the way around and Into the ground. We are in S.E. Michigan. No armadillos. We do have everything else. (No bears or wolves). I was thinking possums but I read today that they will eat small rodents so I assumed they eat a duck, but maybe not. It would have to...

we have our duck pen connected to a shed where they can enter to eat. Something for the last 2 days has entered the shed through the pen, eats food (not a lot either) but poops like no other. It kinda looks like dog poop and mushie together. And it’s a lot! Whatever is getting in has got...

Mine pipped and I waited 24 hrs and they finally finished. They are slow so be patient.

What kind of incubator do you have Squishychicken?

I wish someone would answer this. I just had the same situation, but none of mine hatched. I had seven in the incubator. The first two weeks were going great and then they just stopped. I also had perfect temp and humidity. And I also saw the story about taking them out and spraying g...

my 7 eggs looked good on 7th and 14th day. It is day21 and I looked last night and see no movement at all and the darkness in side seems to only be in half of egg. Should it not be full with a duckling. I mean should it kinda be tight to move in there at this stage. I only have 3 more days...

What is OP? I see it all the time.

What should my 14 day duck eggs in the incubator look like. The first week I saw the veins in all (I have 7). Im not sure what I’m looking at now. I see the air sac on all but the rest is hard to figure out. I’m using a candler that is on the incubator.

I don’t see how this could be bumblefoot on young duckling not even outside yet. Just my opinion

I had a 1 year old duck do this a couple months ago. She would actually walk a step and fall completely on her back and couldn’t get up. I brought her in the house and the good people on here told me what to do. I gave her calcium and b12. It took about three weeks before she even...

I always think there could be certain circumstances with a mom laying on eggs. Are they always 100% same temp humidity? Probably not. So little hiccups on the way shouldn’t cause a disaster. Just a thought.

I think you need a good roof on your pen to start with. If she is eating and drinking good after she calms down a bit (could even take a few hours) than I would think she is fine. Just my perspective.

Anything with her crop. It looked big to me. I watched a video once showing how to empty it.

Metzer. I’ve gotten all mine from there. They also guarantee them. If any die when they are delivered you just call them and they will send more. You can order just 2if you want. They are in Cali I believe and I’m in Michigan. 2 days later mine where here. They have all kinds of...

No change in Lili eating drinking pooping and I can stand her up, so I don’t think it’s her legs and feet. She just seems to be off balance once she try’s to move. She tries hard to get her self up but can’t. If she gets on her back she will lay there kicking until one of us can turn her...

She is still breathing through her mouth only. Is it a sign of something else? Update on Lili. She is still the same. She cant stand and falls to her back. Been giving her her complex and calcium directly in her mouth. She is eating and drinking and eating her peas. (I have to put her...

Ok. We have given her a bath......she looks 100% better. We scanned every inch of her body and there’s no sign of any injury, which is good. We got the B12 and the calcium and gave it to her. She is now laying in her box (in the house). We shall now wait and see how she does! I’m...

I will definitely get all of the above first thing in morning. We will bathe her and keep her inside until we can figure all of this out. Can I put the b complex in her water since it will be just her drinking it? So far she is eating and drinking on her own when we put it in front of...

I have no niacin right now. I haven’t given them any since they were little. I also don’t give them calcium. I’ve never had trouble with them laying their eggs daily so I never gave them any. I was told that their food had all of this in there. They also free range all day.
