Nope. They climb trees and presumably fences. Ducks should be fine if they run away.

Australia. Dangerous wildlife everywhere. Pythons are the usual issue but their coop is fully protected.

Her limp is getting better and she is eating and drinking fine. She can run away pretty quickly as well. I’m pretty sure the lace monitor was just going for water and saw the ducks as a quick snack as they were sitting in the paddling pool, it often just goes for their eggs or for water.

Earlier today, one of my ducks was attacked by a lace monitor (big lizard) and lost a chunk of feathers (not visibly noticeable). She now has a really big limp but there is no visible blood or anything. No one saw the attack take place, we just heard the ducks and went outside to find the lizard...

It did want to kill in anyway possible and it did. A snake or a goanna came and took a sick duck with no body to be found. Our last duck still has a chicken and I feel like she must have seen the body because she isn’t calling out for her sister at all. She isn’t sick anymore and the charcoal...

They are about 1 and a bit years old, they have just been having a duck mix from the local produce store. There is no brand it’s a big white bag full of seed but it has served them well all this time.

Oh no! Is there anyway to cure it or do I have to take them to a vet and pay the extremely high payments.

These ducks were my dream, I got them as babies back in September 2021. I really thought they would last longer.

Recently, I had my favourite little call duck get its neck broken by a python during the night. I came in before the python could eat her but I was still too late. I had completely snake-proofed that coop but the little bastard found it’s way in. Im left with 2 other mixed appleyard ducks, we...

Duck specific feed.

I’ve got these two ducks (I think they are a mix of some two breeds im not sure) and yesterday they were running around chasing flies and having a good time. But today they can hardly even stand up. Only one of them can walk but chooses to sit down instead. It has gotten hot here in Queensland...

Went outside last night to find my favourite little call duck with her head in a pythons mouth. She never even called out or anything, which she normally does. Did it get her in her sleep?? Anyway I’m completely heartbroken and distraught. She was the nicest duck I could have asked for. Now I’ve...

I live in Australia and I cannot use Tractor Supply. What are the details on this liquid B complex?

They are both a year old, they lay fine. They are both eating the same duck mix bought from our local poultry shop. It has been feeding them fine for the last year. They are now both refusing to even stand and barely eat or drink. I’ll give the Liquid B complex a go.

Yesterday, one of my call ducks took a fall and wouldn’t get up and also couldn’t walk when we helped her up. We medicated her with vet prescribed anti inflammatory stuff. She’s better today just has a bit of a limp and is eating and drinking, she even laid an egg. Randomly out of no where, my...

So recently one of my Rouen Clair ducks has started limping. She is the bottom of the pecking order and is quite light. I have taken photos of her legs if anyone can identify the issue it would be appreciated. We are taking her to the vet soon but if someone can find the problem I would be very...

So I just sorted out the protection and there is literally no way for the snake to get in. Every possible entrance is sealed. The ducks are still being loud though is that maybe just because they can see the snake outside their coop?

Alright thanks. I’m new to ducks.

So, it’s 1 am here in Australia. And I am awoken to one of my Australian call ducks being really loud. I got outside to check on them and see nothing, I go back inside and the quacking stops. Until 5 minutes later when the quacking begins. I walk outside to see a python sneaking in through the...

How can I get a 7 week old duck to bond with me though?
