I have three magpie Ducks that need homes due to improper ratio. Is anyone interested?

I have six ducks and one is clearly female and was sold as such and the other five were straight run. They are about 14 ish weeks old and none of them have a curled tailed feather but they also don’t quack and scream like the one that is a known female. Should it be obvious by now if they are...

I have six ducklings (though they look like adult ducks) living near my bedroom and the smell is really making me nauseous ...when will I be able to let them live outside full time? I’m hoping it’s soon haha

How do I meet the nutritional needs of my laying ducks and my drakes who live in the same enclosure ? I’m confused because all flock is a no no apparently for the laying ducks but the drakes don’t need the excess calcium that the females do so what’s the solution?

What can I do to cut protein besides oats. That won’t eat the oats. They pick around it . One of my ducks has angel wing and a few others might as well I just am not totally sure yet. They are 5 ish weeks old. I’ve wrapped with vet wrap but I want to also change their feed. What can i do? I was...

I have six ducklings and they are in a bedroom that is off of our main room right now. They are quiet as can be during the day and at night they scream their heads off. I’m awake all night long. I’m not sure what to do here but I can’t have them screaming like this every night until they can...

I just got ducklings today and I know there’s always a chance that at least one won’t make it, but I want to try everything I can to help it. He/she seems very unstable on her legs and kind of topples over if she tried to stand up to walk . She managed to kind of roll over to her water for a...

I am wanting to landscape around my coop this spring and am wondering about this climbing plant. It’s perfect for my zone and seems like a great option but I am having a hard time figuring out if it’s toxic to chickens and ducks .

Can you all post pictures of your duck house/run/enclosure. I’m adding ducklings to our small farm and want to get some fun inspo for a duck house !

Can you all post pictures of your duck house/enclosure so I can get some inspiration...I’m getting ducklings to add to my small farm and would love some photos! Thank you

I am in search of Ancona or magpie ducklings. I live in Colorado and am having a hard time finding any tractor supply type store or local farm that sells them. I’m not sure if I’m looking in the right places but so far no luck. I only want two or three ducklings and online stores have a pretty...

I have 11 chickens and want to add two Ancona ducks to my flock (not in the same space though-the ducks will have their own run and house). If I were to get a drake and a hen do you think they would be okay? I have read that one male to one female ratio could be detrimental to the female but...

So, I live here in Colorado and some of you may know we’re getting hit with a pretty brutal blizzard right now. My husband had to open my coop door this morning so the chickens could eat and drink and I figured after they were done eating and drinking they would spend the day in the coop...

I have a hen who is raising four chicks. They are a little over a week old and from what I could tell, at least a couple have some dried poop on their bums. I got ahold of one of the chicks to take a closer look and it seemed like the vent was clear but the area around had poop. When I hand...

We just got a electric heater base for our galvanized waterer to keep it from freezing, is it okay if that base gets snowed on and for anyone who owns this product, does it feel really hot to the touch?
