She is a Black Swedish Duck, around 5 months old. The ducks were out early in the morning and that's when my mom leaves early for work. My mom didn't see them in the road and hit her. I have cameras at my house and my male got out of the way but poor Cruela didn't make it out in time. Thank you...
The more I feel around her leg the more it feels like it's not her hip. I don't know if her hip is out of place but her foot is super swollen. Like really swollen. My parents said no to a vet but maybe I can ask my grandpa to take her. I might brace her foot because shes not puting any pressure...
My duck Cruela got hit by a car and I'm pretty sure her hip dislocated. She was limping on her leg and I gave her a warm epsom salt bath and the limping when down. I let her with her friends (mistake) and she was running around and it really dislocated and you can just tell it's out of place...
My duck Cruela has a wound around her oil gland, yesterday there were millions of maggots in it so I bathed her and got as much as I could out. I bathed her 4 times and got all of them out I'm pretty sure.
Today I gave her a bath and no maggots came out. I think she's maggot free now...
Ok, I will buy some Nutri-Drench tomorrow and keep bathing her to get all the maggots off. I'll put the ointment on the wound after bathing. Thank you again!
I just gave her some sugar water through a straw because I didn't have a syringe and she resisted but I was able to get some in her mouth, and it worked!! I gave her some peas and she started eating! It's a miracle! Thank you so much! Your a life saver!
I can't take her to a vet now, but I will of she gets in a worse condition. I'm going to try a couple things to get her eating maybe. Shes barely drinking but I'll try and syringe some food for her.
I need help asap! My poor duck Cruela got hit by a car and has a broken wing. I wrapped it and 3 days later I see this wound with MILLIONS of maggots in it. The wound is where her oil gland is and has spread from there.
I jumped straight into research and bathed her a couple times and got 95%...
She is a Buff duck. Since they free range it's hard to put them in a smaller area but I'll try to take the eggs and golf balls away.
Thank you for the advice.
Hello, my female duck has been laying her eggs up at her house and water source. The ducks free range and she has found a spot in our yard that she made a nest in. She started laying her eggs in it but we want to eat them and not hatch. She has made past nests that we have taken eggs out of and...
Hello, I cracked four eggs this morning and thought they were fertilized. My drake mates with my female and I have been expecting some fertile eggs and I think these might be. Im pretty sure they are all fertile. But I just want to make sure.
Also question about fertile eggs.
If my drake mates...
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that 😢.
I would recommend scaring the coyotes away with another dog or a repellent of some kind. You could also trap the coyotes and take care of them that way.
What breed of dog do you have? Border collies and McNab dogs are good dogs to protect your flock from...
Hello, my female is still laying in the same spot even though I take her eggs. She hasn’t hanged locations yet. Im trying to make her lay somewhere else but she refuses 😂. The spot she lays is safe so I don’t have much concern about it getting attacked or anything.
Yes, I have made an...
