We'd really like to get some blue's, solid black and chocolate next year. Just hens though. "Going Quackers" you anywhere near Woodstock/Ingersoll thats where we just moved from Sept/12 after 26 years.

Its been almost 6 full days since Turbo's mom died. So far the remaining 4 are still doing well, eating, drinking and no signs of illness at all.

On the wall between the two feeders is a big lift up hatch to an empty stall that has an outside door, that I can open to let in fresh air.

The ducks room in the barn. Although an old barn they are kept clean and should be a good area. Each pic is from centre of the room to each end. There is one water bucket and two feed buckets. There is a 4" hole for them to put their heads in to feed and drink. That rubbermaid type bin is for...

Checked around closet place to investigate is Halifax. 5 hr round trip. Not doable. I'm keeping everything spotless as you can with ducks and they are seemingly quite healthy. Since the move had the drake eat out of my hand which he has never done. At one time this past summer they were housed...

Another happy day with no illness or deaths.

Got through today with no signs of further illness in any of my birds. Praying steadily for this to end. They all ate about 4-5 cups today for 4 Muscovy. Its to be very cold tonight for here so they ate a bit extra. Will update new pics of Turbo, He is growing up so fast.

I am in Canada in a very rural area nowhere near a bigger city. The other 4 ducks appear okay today but that was how it looked yesterday. Will update if there is any changes. Thanks

She just passed away

No marks on her. checked her at 8pm and still alive. chirped a bit. There is no fumes anywhere near my barn. I won't be able to afford any investigations as far as death. On a small disability pension and that doesn't allow anything like that. Only can watch and do what I can for them. If I...

Brand new bag of feed no mold. I clean all the poop off the pine shavings every time out to the barn then rake it all out. Ventilation is okay. She is in a dog cart out of the barn. The bantums were from a lady we got some silkies and the bantum roo in the spring they were fine. Separated the...

Well tonight went out and Turbo's mom was trying to walk and couldn't. She's very weak. Tried giving her food and water. No go. She is dying! Now in the last 6 weeks we got two bantams for our 6 month old bantum chicken, They both died, after about 3 wks here, just seemed to get very weak then...

Witnessed both of the first ducks in eating a bit and drinking. One young duck also. The oldest duck I did not see eat or drink yet. Drake goes in today. He is lonely by himself. Will update.

I moved 2 more girls in with the first two. I measure out the food so I can re-measure after part of the day. Earlier today someone is eating 3 cups down to 2+. I have to go out soon to see what was eaten since noon. Its 7:20pm now. I had 4 cups in at noon and now at 7:30 pm its down to 3 cups...

I moved the youngest girl in the barn tonight and she ran straight to the first two. Now a trio of girls together. I was hoping to remove food and water at night but decided I better leave it in. I have not found a treat they really go for yet but hopefully will.I am carefully measuring their...

We have a dog pen to put Turbo in so he can see the others but they can't get to him unless he sticks his head out. Our intention was for him to be in the pen in the room with the adults more and more each day. But what about the 2 ducks not eating. Should I bring in the drake and other 2 ducks...

Because these 2 girls ( one of them is the mommy to Turbo) are the calmest and we were hoping to start introducing Turbo before the others joined them. The 3 other adults are a drake and his sis about 16 weeks old and a duck of undertermined age. When we introduced the drake and his sis to the...

I moved two under 1 year old Muscovy girls into the barn two days ago ad they refuse to eat. They drink very little and that was only today. They ate fine out with the other 3 in the outside enclosure. They are in a large enclosed room, no drafts and pine shaving floor. Cozy. So now what, move...
