Calling All Duck Gene Experts / Enthusiasts!
I made a post 2 days ago about some ducks / geese I saw at a local lake. One duck in particular has been on my mind since for how handsome he was!! He’s the only one I couldn’t identify. I am extremely curious to what genes he could possibly have to look this way. He’s completely brown, yet...- KathiQuacks

Yellow bump on top of ducks wing
My drake dandy had this weird bump on the top of his wing, has another duck just pulled his feathers out or is it something more serious? He’s a male Indian runner duck coming up to 2 years old.- Lokesncloaks

Older drake with a slight droop in his wing.
I feel like I’ve made so many posts about my boy Cherry this year 🤣 My drake, Cherry, is about 6 years old. I’ve noticed over the past few weeks that his left wing has this slight droop in it, maybe an inch or so lower than where it’s supposed to be. Like, if a duck with angel wing recovered 90%...- KathiQuacks

Raging Mallard - Ducks Hate the Drake
Pancake my little mallard drake was bullying one of my geese relentlessly and I’ve followed this people on this site advice and separated them. So far, success. Also it turns out part of the problem was that they both feel they own me and so I now don’t pet them in each others view. But now a... -

Raging mallard drake
My faithful little drake is an a-hole. He’s a wild Mallard (not protected in my country) that I raised after finding him as a day old baby in a busy road September 2023. He’s not mean to me but he persecutes one of my geese mercilessly. Maybe she’s a gander? He was hand raised alongside my two... -
After loss- duck needs a new home
A few nights ago a predator attacked and killed 2 out of 3 of my ducks. It even ate the eggs my female duck was sitting on. The one who survived is devastated 💔. He wont eat, quack, or enjoy his day. My family is sad but we need to to find a new home with ducks so he can hopefully be a happy...- BKHen

Silver Appleyard’s
I’m having immense difficulty in sexing my two silver Appleyard’s - they’re quacks sound similar and because I only have the two it’s hard to identify.

The Drake Dip
Hey all! Wondering if any of your drakes do a “dip” sort of dance? move? in unison? We have two Ancona boys and they seem to do this when they’re really happy or excited (definitely when they’re surrounded by ladies. I’m not going to say it’s reminiscent of a boy band move, but i can’t say it’s...- DuckTapePalace

3 week old ducklings introduced to adult flock, drake tried to "breed" with them
So, here's my dilemma. It's kind of a long story so please bear with me. We bought 2 ducklings from TSC and the same day bought 4 chicks from a local non-chain farm store. They've been raised together and do great together. We then hatched out (via incubator) 9 baby chickens that we are brooding...- NewJourney

Giant Pekin Drake with Prolapse Phallus
Today I had to make an emergency trip with our 3 yo Giant Pekin “Jack” to the aviary veterinarian. For a few days we’ve noticed he isn’t able to tuck in his male part and drags it all over the frozen yard as he waddles to and fro. After researching if this dragging was normal - which it isn’t...- WetheringHeightsFarm

My drake is acting broody 😆
Before anyone asks, yes, he is a drake, no doubt about it. Most drakes, from what I hear, will simply hang out near the nest while his hen does her thing. Some will stand guard over the nest, and very rarely, drakes will actually sit on the nest themselves. My drake has gone a little beyond the...- KathiQuacks
