We have a golden 300 named Lola and she commonly gets bumble foot which after giving her antibiotics typically heals just fine. A few days ago we noticed that she was limping and after checking her foot did not notice any sores that typically accompany bumble foot. Then yesterday, we noticed her...

I know that male mallards go through a molt in the summer, but ours seems to have been molting for about 8ish months. He did drop all of his flight feathers a few weeks back and has been getting new ones but his head has not been green for a very long time. Does any body know why that could be...

We have 4 ducks- 3 ladies and one little butt head drake, Harvey. We've noticed that he attacks our Welsh Harlequin, but is totally fine with the other two (Khaki Campbell and Golden 300). I assumed it was just due to pecking order, since our Welsh is the most timid of the girls, but my husband...

One of my ducks has a really bad limp that has been getting progressively worse over the past couple of weeks. It isn't yet preventing her from getting to food and water and she still forages around the yard during the day, but she definitely tucks it up under her wing as often as possible. Are...

The epic story of whether my mallard is a male or female has been on-going since I got her/him... This is Harvey, originally thought to be a boy, only to be changed to a girl once her feathers came in. She is 15 weeks old now, and I really need to be close to 100% positive on gender because...

I have a 3 week old duckling who spends her days in her coop while I'm at work.. I would like to get another duckling to keep her company, does anyone know if they take well to new ducks? Do you have any advice on how to keep my current duckling from getting too lonely outside? thanks!

Hi! I'm new to raising ducks and I want to do it right! For now, my little guy (or possibly girl now that some feathers are showing up) is growing up in a Southern California apartment with a big back patio and pesky neighbors but will be moving up to Northern California in 2 months. Harvey is...
