    Drake has hoarse voice

    No, I haven’t, i change their bedding every 2- 3 days though. I’ll check in the morning though. If there is mold, will removing it make them better or will I have to give them Medicine or anything?

    Drake has hoarse voice

    hi! So, I put my ducks in their coops the other other night and everything seemed fine. The next morning I went to let my drakes out and noticed Sidon, my Rouen, has kinda lost his voice. I’m worried about him. He’s doing fine otherwise. He’s kinda coughing a bit too though. Anyone know what...

    Grain mites?!

    So, I just started working at tsc, well, I’ve never seen this in any of my feed bags or anything but I saw a whole bunch of little things crawling on some bags at the tsc I work at, i told my manager and she said they’re just grain mites. Gross! She said they would come home with someone if...

    Duck with broken leg

    I thought it seemed pretty expensive as well. I’ve called and checked around, but can’t really seem to find many options. even with some of my close friends/relatives that are familiar with poultry. They all have either never needed to go to one, or recommended the one I mentioned. I’ll look...

    Duck with broken leg

    I’m assuming around the ankle, because the other one stands straight while that isn’t doesnt seem able to.

    Duck with broken leg

    so, last summer I had a duck injure his leg. I bough a seat type thing which immobilized him. So he could still be outdoors with my other ducks without putting pressure on his leg and hurting it more. I also made a splint for him as well. After a few weeks I let him walk with the splint on for...

    Ducks get soaked in water?

    okay, so I’ve had my ducks for a year now. They’ll be a year March 28th. This winter was brutal so I didn’t let them have their pool much, I think only a handful of times I let them have access to it on the warmer days. Today is 45 so I figured I’d let them have their pool to clean themselves...

    Raccoon in duck coop

    Well, finally got him out nearly two and a half hours later! I removed one of the vent covers and tied my Bluetooth speaker to a rope and lowered it into the duck coop from there blasting loud metal music, sprayed vinegar in there, shined spotlight fliashlights in, and he didn't budge. So, I got...

    Raccoon in duck coop

    Got all 3, waiting for my speaker to charge and I'm gonna try to blast really loud obnoxious music, spray him with vinegar, and put my floodlights on him. Crossing my fingers!

    Raccoon in duck coop

    The coop is also too small for me to stand in and shoo him out.

    Raccoon in duck coop

    kind of a bit of an emergency, I went to put my ducks inside about an hour and a half ago. A raccoon had somehow gotten in their coop. A friend and I have been trying to get him out since then and he just curls up in a ball and starts there. We've left the door open and left it alone, we've hit...

    How to keep duck coop dry?

    So, I constantly have to change the straw in my duck coop because every 2-3 days it's soaked. I know ducks are just messy animals by nature, but I was wondering if there was anything I could do to kind of stop it from getting so soaked so often? I put down about 1/3 bale of straw every time I...

    Taking ducks to the vet

    Hey everyone! I just wanted to give a bit of an update! I have been giving the ducks the vitamin B complex and the one that couldn't walk like at all is now standing up and walking, or well, trying to. He takes a few steps and then sits back down but it is quite a bit of improvement! The other...

    Taking ducks to the vet

    Thank you so much! And Yupp, i bought a pack of the syringes that you can just click a needle onto so that I can use it without if needed. And well, they were fine walking when younger, they were just really clumsy. Which I figured was just part of the way they walked at first. Then I realized...

    Taking ducks to the vet

    The person who told me about it told me to get the injectable kind from tractor supply and that it's fine to use orally so I got that and they reccomended using 1ml per sick duck. I have them in little slings right now because in case the legs were injured I didn't want them to put too much...
