Hi I have two house ducks, who do go outside in a big pen but they come indoors a lot. but anyway beside the point, I have a kharki campbell , Pancake, (Drake) and a little Mallard, Aromatic, (Drake) he has a twisted tendon so only has use of one leg, (this is why they come inside a lot as he is...
Thank you for that, I thought it was that, was just checking as I did have a duck that jumped at the chance to be picked up and tickled complete opposite. and he was a rescue mallard. he's my profile pic. he used to jump on your lap and put his head round my neck and sleep, very needy, he...
HI I am trying to understand my kharki campbell.s (pancake) behavior'. he's a lovely boy so funny and plays with his mallard drake friend and so happy. but I want to know why he follows me everywhere. if I go out of sight or my partner he squarks like he is shouting until he finds what ever one...
I was hoping that, had happened by now,. Love runners btw they are really cute. It's simple for me to tell with a mallard as I live on a marina so am surrounded by them, and had one before, when they are youngsters in the baby plumage, people say to me how do you know that's a boy they all...
So I have a rescue mallard I hatched. he had a slipped tendon, so only has use of one leg. (has had a vet visit but nothing could be done) anyway. he's a happy little fellow 6 weeks now and learning fantastically to balance on the one leg and he wants for nothing from me. I also have a 7 week...
I Also have a duckling who has a slipped tendon, one of his legs is just tucked up and a little twisted, the vet could not twist it back so gave me anti inflammatory and pain killer and i was told lots of swimming, as it might just pop back. I don't want to try to do as I don't want to hurt my...
So back from the vets, she has confirmed it is a slipped tendon she tried to pop it back in but as the knee was swollen, it would not pop round, we have painkillers and anti inflammatory and she showed me how to do a figure of eight bandage. Advised on lots of swimming, and it may pop back on...

Thank you I may have found another avian clinic round the corner from me so hopefully if it is that then one of the horses there should be able to do it . I would do it myself but I’ve no idea how and if that’s not the case then I’m scared of hurting him
Hi

I have a little duckling who’s 4 days old. He seems to have one leg that is fused at the knee, it won’t bend and I’m not trying to much as don’t want to hurt him. He swims ok pruns ok and is now darting around like a little bullet, just wondered if anyone else has the same thing and what did...
I was wondering how this little duckling got on as o have one exactly the same and I’m worried. Did the poorly leg grow the same size at the other one ?
UPDATE: Crispy is so back to him self this morning he had a big long sleep last night in his fluffy bed and came out this morning his bubbly playing self. all a bit more stuck to me mind you but hes playing like he was before. :)
