Hi, so I’m currently moving to an area where we live right next to a body of water, and I don’t want to leave behind my ducks. What would you reccomend for building a pen for them out there. I should mention a decent amount of the area is slanted. I also have 4 ducks, all female. One has a...

So I have mentioned this Cayuga before, but she is currently 9 years old and suffers from arthritis. Recently, she broke her leg around the femur area, and there is very little hope she’ll be able to walk ever again. We’re not sure what exactly caused this. I don’t want to put her down. She...

Hi, so for the past couple of months, I have had very alarming concerns with my ducks and need help badly. I have 5 ducks right now, but 2 died in the past couple of months from what was identified as cancer. One had tumors in his testes and liver, while another had one between his wing. I have...

So i have a cayuga female who’s been with a black swedish for a while, but he sadly passed away this week. We have another flock but the sole drake doesn’t get along at all. The mate is 8, and doesn’t lay, and I’m unsure what exactly to do with her. I’ve had her since middle school and dont...

Hi, so I’ve been handling a Black Swedish for 8 years, who’s suddenly suffering some kind of wing injury and is coughing a LOT. He never had angel wing, but struggles to keep his wings in his down, which I recognize is a stress issue. I understand he is old, and in fact recently lost his...

So I’ve had this Rouen duck for 8 years. I made a previous thread on him, healthy before, has a brother who seems unphased. At first, he had some issues with feathers, and wasn’t able to get out of the pond, but seemed to be recovering. However recently his head has been shaking a lot, and he...

So i have had this Rouen for about 8 years. As healthy as a horse, but for the past couple of weeks he’s been noticeably becoming more unhealthy. He seems more week, his feathers are scruffed, he seems to be gaining weight, and is far less mobile. Any ideas on what it could be and how to handle...

So my Saxony female had hatched a batch of ducklings, and we were sure they are Welsh Harlequin x Saxony mixes, but looking again, I’m not too sure. There is a Black Swedish who may have wormed his way into the pen, which makes me beg the question. What do you guys think? Parents and possible...

Hi, so I have a Male Welsh Harlequin who turns 11 in July and a Female Saxony thats about 2-3. We never expected them to hatch any young, but I heard peeps from the nest she sits on, and now I'm scrambled figuring out what to do. We have raised ducklings before but never beyond the nest. We need...

I’ve had this bird for 5 years, and I’m beginning to see leg issues that are beginning to get to her. I believe she’s a Jumbo Pekin, and I’ve read about their health issues, but I hope to do something about this before it’s too late. Her voice is becoming weak and she’s a bit more dull than...
