    Sexing my ducks

    The coop is more like a house, it would be very hard for us to build anything inside it. We are thinking about putting the dog crate that the babies sleep in out in the pen, where the ducks still have access, but would have to get the heat lamp out there for them.

    Sexing my ducks

    Well, I'll be interested to see what my new babies are. They are roughly 10 weeks old, so I'll be interested to see if a drake feather comes in. Now we are trying to introduce them and it's not going as well as I would have hoped. My buffs attack them and then laugh about it, little jerks :lau

    Sexing my ducks

    They are 5 months old, all their heads are roughly the same color, not any darker or lighter then the other. There is also no drake feathers visible on any of them, but I've definitely been seeing them doing a lot of *ahem* activity in the morning times.

    Sexing my ducks

    Hello All - We have 7 Buff Oprington ducks, we believe there are 5 females and 2 males. We tried looking for the sex feather last night, but all the feathers were completely straight, so I'm thinking maybe buff ducks do not have a visible sex feather. We've tried voice sexing, but there are...

    Duck eggs

    Is it pretty normal for only 3 of the 5 girls to lay? We have 7 in total and think 5 of them are girls, based on beak color and their quack.

    Duck eggs

    INSIDE THE EGG?! Omg, lol. And surprisingly, the eggs are tiny, like the size of medium chicken eggs, I figured they would be much larger

    Duck eggs

    Hi all - My opringtons started laying eggs this week, I've gotten around 2 dozen so far. We've been giving them to our dogs, as my husband read somewhere that the first few lays arent mature enough or something, not entirely sure as I never followed up on what he read to confirm it. Today...

    Duck with dislocated knee

    All the tendons in his legs were bad, basically Legs was able to rotate his legs almost 180 degrees, his hocks were swollen, they said thay we could put him in a sling, but that he would more then likely have lifetime pain. She works for our local waterfowl rescue, so I believe her when she was...

    Duck with dislocated knee

    RIP Legs, the sweetest ducky around. He loved cuddles, bathtime and pets. Before the vet put him to sleep, he walked his way over to my chest, pushed his body against me and cuddled his head in my kneck. That pretty much broke me.
