Sage is a full grown thriving beautiful duck that now lives in a flock with 40+ other birds. He is over a year old now. If you read through the whole thread you should be able to find my treatment for him. My main suggestion if you have a duck like this is get the b complex in it, nutridrench in...

Sage is a Cayuga duck!! When I bought him he and Nutmeg were in the khaki Campbell bin but it turned out they are both Cayugas! I don’t mind at all since I love the breed! I now have four cayugas total.😊

Quick update! This is Sage now!! It turned out hes a boy, but thats ok. I love him very much!!! He is HUGE and lives outside with his siblings now!!! He still does wattle and move slightly different than the other ducks, but you only see it if you stare for a while. I'm so happy he is...

Thank you! I'm so glad she is better! The other three ducks are growing SO fast! They outgrew my small starter brooder and are close to outgrowing the next one. (I wasn't set up to having a big one from the start but we can keep making small changes) I let the other three out for some outside...

Hey sorry it has been an insane week and I am only now getting these to you. I have moved them out of my room and into the garage since they were getting big and stinking my room up quickly no matter how fast I could clean it. Sage still seems to walk, stand, and run oddly. I have no idea. Both...

Ok. Yes I did make them a waterer. I can try but its a family members birthday and its chaotic so it might b a bit later. For sure! Thanks!

Hey yall Sage and Waffles (the other little duckling) have been doing great! I no longer have to scramble eggs daily since Sage is eating and drinking on her own. They LOVE to spread their water and food everywhere and make a big mess and just be ducks. They love their baths and are obsessed...

Would yall happen to have any ideas about my latest question on this thread? I know some of yall had given me tips earlier on. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/chicken-with-egg-shell-stuck-in-vent-i-need-help-now.1520500/page-10#post-25630084

Will do! The new little one also now loves the stuffed froggy too!

I just finally let them be for a bit, and now they seem great together! I had to leave for an appointment, and when I came back they were snuggled up together sleeping. I've checked on them several times and they were both chilling together each time. I haven't decided on a name yet for the...

Its been maybe 2-3 hours? They look like they might be doing better now. I will keep an eye on them thank you. I just freaked out because I have worked so hard to help Sage and I don't want to mess something up.

They both seem stressed and I'm kinda worried. Should I give it more time or try to return the duck or something else?

Thank you both!!! Sage picked on the other one a bit at first like what ARE you? Sage MIGHT have pushed the other little one away from the water, but it could have been a fluke and I need more time to watch them. And Then they snuggled up together and slept.

I walked into the feed store, saw rouen ducklings......asked if I could only buy one....and bought one :oops: they are kinda afraid of each other. Any tips on helping them be comfortable with each other?

Yes she has grown quite a bit!! Ok great thanks!

Oh! That makes me feel better! I tried to get pictures, but the bulge is not there today, and even after I gave her a bunch of food it did not appear. The hollowish area on her right side also does not seem to be there like it was last night. Maybe it was a weird angle? You can really only see...

I will try to get those to you soon.

Yall I figured something out. Last night I brought Nutmeg in for a visit since Sage has been gaining strength and growing more each day. Well they were both very excited to see each other, and it went well, and so I left Nutmeg in there for a few hours with the plan of leaving her in there...

Sage is continuing to improve! Shes acting more and more like a duckling should! She is SO very bonded with me and SCREAMS whenever I leave the room. She has started to grab at sweatshirt strings, and little threads like ducklings should. She clears her nares regularly in her water bowl, she...

I may feel and look like a zombie and my eyes hurt and have dark circles under them, but my animals do really get the best care I can manage. People have told me to stop pushing myself but I cant stand back and watch my babies suffer.
