Here is a pic of my Bugaboo with wrap just off. I am surprised at the difference!
Before:
After:
Picked up the mazuri maintenance today and fed them half/half of mazuri with purina start n grow. Silly things picked out all the start n grow and left the mazuri. At $40 a bag, you'd think...
So.... just so I am clear...
Starting today, I am going to give both 5 week old ducklings and goslings a combination of 18% starter with the mazuri maintenance?
OK, I will unwrap this afternoon and take a pic.
Hey Celtic, my favorite waterfowl mentor. Today is day 5 with Bugaboo's wrap. Should I remove and check.... or wait 1-2 more days??
Also, I am going to feed store today. My options for what is in stock are 18% purina start n grow (which is what they are back on now), layena 16% grower, or...
He has adjusted to wearing it beautifully, and is running around, acting happy, and begging for treats. Unless I see any change in behavior, I will leave it for at least 5 days, unless you think it is better to wait a full 7?
Bugaboo's wrap is staying on perfectly. It doesn't seem to bother him. He does not pick at it. He also is back to eating out of my hand too. He is a sweet & brave drake. I really hope this works! Will post before/after pics when I remove wrap.
Bugaboo has to stay wrapped up for that long? Poor thing, he looks miserable! His breast appears to bulge over in front of the wrap, but he is eating/drinking/moving well and his breathing seems normal. So I assume it is not too tight? Of course I am a worry wart about it.
Celtic, hubby wanted me to ask if we should change wrap tomorrow or leave it? And I am wondering if there is anything I should be watching for in case it is too tight?
I just had this start to appear on my ancona drake 2 days ago. He turned 5 weeks old yesterday. I asked Celtic to explain how to fix it, and she made this wonderful thread for us. I got it wrapped up this afternoon. I will let you know how it looks in a few days.
