Sorry, double post.

Awww... I wish mine were that tame. They definately are tame to a degree, as I found out when I bought my Appleyards, but not to the point where they'll snuggle or anything! How often do you have to clip their nails when they're indoor duckies?? Mine are just whenever they get too long. o_O...

I wish my ducks could meet her! They all wished they could stay in the house when we first put them outside... *sniff sniff* Sad sad. They hopped up onto the back stairs and looked in through the glass.

You can use cardboard for support, and duct tape ( lol 'duck' tape ) to hold it all together...??

Let's hope she gets better! : Don't take my word as law or anything, I'm no vet. These are just things I've read and stored in my brain for further research. If you don't eat her eggs or plan on eating her (which I'm assuming you won't) there's a product called Blue-Kote From TSC (probably...

From my (limited) knowledge, bumblefoot in ducks is different than in chickens; chickens frequently have pus, but ducks don't. Don't ask me why, I'm new to all of this. Bumblefoot is caused by even the teeny-tiniest laceration (cut) on their foot, and then walking around in their own feces or...
