Yes, I provide that for all my ducks but the conditions I just pick her up from.. definitely did not. I soon as I brought her home I put her in the bathtub and she drank a ton of water. She had one yellow poop and then poop like this (I’ll post it). She finally cleaned her nose and She hasn’t...
I just picked up this cutie for a brooder mate for my Elizabeth. I have some concerns.. she’s never been handled, her living conditions were a wire rabbit cage with 5 other ducklings, with a dry duckling waterer, definitely nothing to rinse her nose and I didn’t see a food dish anywhere. The...
