    Egg bound duck????

    Yes, she's been acting normal wanting to be out with the other ducks but I have her isolated in the pen, I put a bowl of crushed oyster shells by their food dish so, they have access to it daily.

    Drakes fighting

    No, I also have females. I'm hoping that they get out of the fighting stage soon, the weather is starting to warm up here so they have been out free ranging more so I'm hoping that will help the situation, if it doesn't I will definitely separate them before they injure or kill each other.
