    Skinny Runner Duck! Need Help, Please!

    Their main source is a pellet feed, but I add veggies, fruits, and mealworms… along with them foraging through my yard and garden constantly.

    Skinny Runner Duck! Need Help, Please!

    Hi! I have three indian runner ducks, three buff ducks, one rowan duck, and two pekin drakes. All ducks are right around one year old. In the past five days, one of my runners has stopped eating or at least I haven't been able to get her to eat in front of me, even when I offer her favorites...

    New Ducklings vs. 3 week old Ducklings (Aggression)

    Whistling means drake? My female runners are almost three weeks old now and they chirp and whistle. I swear they sound almost just like crickets! I hope you only have one drake too. I’m still a nervous mess on the gender on mine!

    Gender guesses for 6 week old ducklings

    What about when they don’t make noise? My Pekins don’t honk or try to honk. They kind of squeak like they’ve done since they were tiny. No loud noises at all! It’s confusing…. They wheeze a bit out of their nose sometimes, but they never ever open their mouths and make more peep.

    Gender guesses for 6 week old ducklings

    I have four 6 week old ducklings. 2 Pekin, 2 Rouen. I’m wondering if anyone has any idea on gender. One of the Pekins has one curled up feather, but neither of the quake. The one with the curl makes an odd “swoop” sound and the other is silent and a bit smaller. As for the Rouens one has a very...

    Too Many Drakes

    My parents have offered to take all my drakes, but they live next door. I’m worried the drakes won’t be happy because they’ll still be able to see the females without getting to touch them. Do you know if that would cause a lot of issues?

    Too Many Drakes

    All my runners are female. I bought them from a different place. So I have two Pekin males (4 weeks old), one Rouen male (4 weeks old), one Rouen female (4 weeks old), and three white and fawn runner females (one week old). So, it will eventually be 3 males to 4 females. I think my yard could...

    Too Many Drakes

    My parents live next door to me. We each have a chainlink fence. Do you think the drakes could safely live in her yard? And the ducks in mine? They’d still be able to see one another, but not touch one another. She just offered to keep the drakes and I’ve read a group of drakes could be a happy...

    New Ducklings vs. 3 week old Ducklings (Aggression)

    Thank you all for your help. I’m keeping the three runner one week old ducklings indoors 99% of the time, but I do let them in the yard when the 4 weeks old ducks are foraging. My Pekins happily lounge with the new ducklings and one of my Rouens seems to want to share food with the new...

    Too Many Drakes

    I think I have too many drakes. My mother decided to gift me four ducklings four weeks ago. Two Pekin, two Rouen. She had no idea the gender mattered and the man she purchased them from at Tractor S told her they were most likely girls, but they couldn’t be sure. She just believed him and told...

    New Ducklings vs. 3 week old Ducklings (Aggression)

    Hi. I received 4 ducklings (about a week old when I received them) on April 8th. Two pekins and two rouen. (Sex unknown so far.) It seems one of the rouen ducklings is male and the other female. The pekins are a bit of a mystery, but whatever they are seems to be the same and from what I can...
