Hi! I'm hatching call ducks again this year and I bought 12 eggs from a seller off of Ebay. I'm all for surprises but I'm also curious on what colors I could end up with! From the pictures and the description of the item on Ebay, they have one penciled male, one white male, female black bibbed...

Hey so I went to go feed my ducks and I noticed Buzzard's wing was bleeding (where his angel wing is) it's not that bad and I'm cleaning him up at the moment but I was wondering what could I put on it for pain relief? I'm not sure if hes in pain but just in case I wanted to give him something...

So my call girl, Pike Laid 9 eggs!! She had been acting differently, she was usually separated from the flock, scavenging on her own, laying on her own, etc. although the others still provided her company every now and then, she just seemed like she wanted to be alone. I went down there today...

So I'm back with Buzzard.. ever since his mate, Newt died, hes grown very protective of his kids, Fawn, Pike and Tokki. He didn't attack me as much as he used to but he started back up but its been off and on, I usually don't get attacked unless my hands are near him, he just runs up to me and...

Hi! This is probably a dumb question but I'm curious I still have some of Newt's fertile eggs and we weren't planning on hatching any more of her eggs so we stored them in the fridge I heard people store their eggs up to 24 hours in the freezer before hatching them (when shipped) So basically I...

Yeah, I'm back again with another post :/ This time, my first hatched duck, Newt, died. She died right in front of her mate, Buzzard (who was in drake jail) I don't have pictures as we already boxed her up but she had blood coming out of her beak and on the right side of her neck, her feathers...

Hi again.. : D So I was certain I knew the genders of my three remaining call ducklings but I'm starting to doubt myself with one of them. My three ducklings are Pike, Tokki and Fawn. Pike is definitely a female, always quacking up a storm like her mother. Although when Fawn gets scared or is...

Hi again, seems like I'm here with something new every week.. But I'm pretty sure Buzzard (my drake) killed his son Jellyfish. After weeks of doing see but no touch and watching them interact with each other, I thought it was finally time for them to all be together since Buzzard wasn't really...

First off wanted to say happy birthday to my girl Newt!! Second off I wanted to ask how do I rekindle my relationship with Newt? We used to be best friends and she wanted to be with me 24/7 but now she wants to be away from me 24/7. I tried treats (her favorite are dandelions) but she'll come...

Is my duck egg bound or stressed or something else? A little backstory: I just came home about an hour ago and I immediately went to check my ducks. I noticed when I went to check on them Newt was in her nesting box and she was just staring at me, not quacking, which isn't like herself so I...

Hi again! So I have a quick question, I have six call ducklings, they are a mix of a Snowy and I think a Blue or Grey Dusky (not sure of her exact breed). Here are some pictures of their parents: Buzzard (their father) Newt (their mother) 3 out of 6 are blue and brown like Newt and the...

Hey everyone!! So last time I was here, Newt had begun laying eggs and I was worried Newt and Buzzard weren't mating. There were a few times I thought they mated but I wasn't sure. Today I decided to take Newt's eggs and candle them (which we have 6 now) and turns out they are fertile! They...

Hello again! I feel like I'm always on here with something new every week lol So I was out all yesterday (from 5:30am until 10:00pm) so I didn't really get to hangout with my ducks at all (Buzzard and Newt.. again..) but I did make sure they had food and water before I left. I checked up on them...

Hey! Haven't been on here in a while lol. I think last time I was on here I was having some vitamins problems with my boy, Buzzard, he was acting odd and was really skinny but hes doing way better now! Him and Newt have become closer since they are living together in a bigger enclosure outside...

Hi everyone! I wasn't sure where to post this so I put it in "Managing Flock" and I didn't want to put it in the injuries/diseases because I'm not sure if it is a disease.. So my two-month old snowy call duck, Lovebug, has some problems.. First off I want to explain my whole situation with...

So this is my first time having calls which are my favorite duck breed and my girl Newt will be 4 months old October 18th and I was wondering when she'd go into heat. I don't know much about ducks and heat and I was wondering if they go into heat at a certain age or if it's only during their...

Help! I need help with my duckling, Lovebug.. I opened the safety hole a little wider because he kept pushing the membrane and it was covering the hole. Then I noticed no beak.. I opened the egg wider to find no beak but I can see the elbow of the wing. Next to the yolk sac (some of the egg is...

Hello everyone again! I feel like I post tons of threads nowadays lol.. So since Tulipa died during hatching and we wanted to get Newt a friend but no one had any call ducklings.. we got some more eggs! We bought some snowy call eggs from someone and they had 6 eggs, they weren't sure if any...

EDIT: haha another edit, third edit lol so just figured out why shes been so upset and not potting as much.. its because I changed her food!! She really loves her chick food and I noticed shes trying to eat anything she can find and NOT her new food. So I decided to give her some of her old food...

So I didn't really know where to put this forum but I need help with my little duckling, Newt. Hes currently on the way to being 4 weeks old (in 2 more days) and yesterday while he was was swimming, he kept opening his mouth and acting as if he were about to throw up. Turns out, he did. Well...
