Im not sure if this is the correct forum but I wasn’t sure where else to post it other than ’ducks.’ I’m going to try and go into detail about what happened.
I have 13 ducks of various breeds, 6 of which are muscovies. 2 males and 4 females, they are our only male ducks. All my ducks are about...
So i have some polish and silkie chicks right now, around 8 weeks old. Back when they were around 2 weeks I had a polish chick that almost died, like it wouldn't even lift its head up refused to eat or drink. I spent days nursing it back to health, expecting to find it dead every time I would...
Hello i am in search of preferably female ducks that need rehoming in northern ohio or close by. I’m willing to drive. I am mostly looking for pekin, khaki, and muscovy. :) if there’s a small group of females id be willing to take a drake as well. I currently have 5 ducks and want to surprise my...
I’m going to scrub out their coop tomorrow just incase, but i doubt it was mold. There was no way it was a predator at all, they are very close to me at night and have a loud goose that lets me know if anything or anyone is near. Also no sign of anything getting in. I think it died early in the...
Yeah there’s no way it was a predator at all, they are right up next to my house with a huge goose and i can hear anytime he screams and wake up to check on them. It died during the day as well.. I am just worried about my other ducks.
Im heart broken this morning, I went out to the run and checked inside the coop and my pekin duck did not move. I thought it was sleeping and shook it and realized it was dead. After having somewhat of a mental breakdown, I had my boyfriend come get her out. She had her head stretched out and...
I got my chick about two weeks ago it’s a silkie, it’s very small and i noticed right away that one of its eyes was very watery. Slowly it progressed into being puss filled, and swelling. I got eye drops for it and put those in every day, but now it’s completely swollen shut, I put a warm...
So i currently have a goose and duck I raised from hatching, they are inseparable. But I am getting them some “friends.” Originally I was planning on getting a few ducks but my friend got ahold of me and wants me to take her Famale goose and 1 female duck as well as one drake. And I have 5...
I have an embden goose named jeffery, he needs a new home. He is in a small enclosure and it isnt fair to him he can be aggressive but I believe it's because of his small enclosure. I love him dearly and could never kill him because of his aggression. Please anyone take him and give him a good...
Hello, I really want to get silkies. I absolutely love the look of them and have heard great things about the breed in general. But after some researching it seems you can really only get them st. run. I only want to order around 10 at the most, but what if I get like 6 hens and 4 roos? I will...
Thank you for telling me that, I was honestly considering getting rid of him but I know I would regret that so much. I’ll be honest it scared me, that my goose I talk so kindly about was going at me. I’ve been nervous to go near him again, but I need to show him I’m his boss and I always will...
Well, I didn’t want to have make this post one day but here we are. I raised my geese and ducks from babies, and jeffery my gander was my absolute best friend. We got along so well, I would spend all my time with him. He’s almost a year old now and suddenly he got aggressive. I know this happens...
