My pekin has been losing tail feathers but not any other feathers on her body. Her tail has been bald for about 3 weeks now and no sign of new feathers....any idea if i should be concerned or not?

I was afraid that was the answer . Preditors on the ground can easily be blocked but from the sky it is much harder to do. Thank you for your help!!

My ducks have safe housing at night but roam the fenced in yard during the day. Last week, my only drake was found headless but his body otherwise intact with some feathers scattered around the body. The females were found untouched but terrified, hiding under bushes across the yard. What would...

I'm way ahead of ya with the Epsom salt- she is in the bathtub with it now while we speak. Trying to keep her from drinking it though. Don' t know if it's a laxative to ducks as with people. She's happily swimming around right now . I live in Lancaster county pa...plenty of agriculture vets...

Great idea! I will see what I have that I can use for a "shoe". Wishing I still worked in the ED for casting and splinting materials . I will figure something out while I try to find another vet. Thanks!!

It is sores...they showed up a few days ago ,. I don't have any video from before unfortunately. I will take her to the vet again. Unfortunately he was the only one in the county that deals with birds but I will look in neighboring counties and see what I can find. Thanks!

Thank you for doing that for me!!

I am the only pekinmomma on video if you want to see the 2 videos on there...

Can all of you see this picture? Just want to make sure it isn't just showing on my end.

It won't allow me to copy and paste it. I even made a gif to have something smaller but it still isn' working.

I made a vimeo account and I have video but I can' upload it here because it says file is too big. It' 23 seconds long.

Wow....cant believe that worked. Ok, well here she is standing near her small pool. I have video of her trying to walk but it says file too big.

I can' post anything...video or pictures. Cam you explain how to ?

Wow. I will do that unless my dog is out there too. Didn't think of the dog as deterring the drake...good idea! Thanks!

I posted back in the summer about my pekin with a leg problem. I took her to the vet last summer and was told it was a sprain since the xray did not show anything more. I gave her anti-inflammatory meds he prescribed but it didn' t improve. Vet doesn' t know what else to do. She has always...

A few days ago, my 2 pekins (1year old) and my 2 khakis (almost 3 months old) all female, roaming the yard when I heard them whacking loudly and running for their own. Yesterday I heard the same thing but only the khakis ran away. Each time I found nothing in the yard, no footprints in the mud...

A fluffy blanket on the bottom of the dog crate with pine shavings from tractor supply and straw from a nearby farm. The rest of the quack shack is covered with just straw and lots of it

My Khaki ducklings were 5 weeks when I let them outside supervised during the day. It was about 50°. At 7 weeks when they had all of their feathers, I left them outside in the "quack shack" overnight ( a 10x10 outside dog pen with a roof) with extra warm bedding in a large dog crate and tarps...
