Hello everyone! Some background: My ducks were born in June of 2017. Being a first time duck/chicken mom, I when they came to age, I promptly trimmed their flight feathers in fear of them flying away. One of the ducks has molted multiple times in the years since, but the other duck still has...

Hi All, We have 2 beautiful ducks we inherited from a college aged family member who had no idea what he was getting into when he took them in as hatchlings. He raised them indoors and they are fantastic with him but he lived in a small studio apartment on campus and was at risk of being...

Hello everyone! I have a small flock of 5 ducks that are currently penned up near the house in a chicken tractor. This winter, I am working on fencing off the back half of the property (about half an acre) to give the livestock (ducks, chickens, turkeys and hopefully goats) more room to...

Hey everyone! I now have 6 ducks, and they are all fed a healthy organic feed with scratch grains mixed in daily. I haven't had any more problems with limping or any injuries for that matter since my last thread, so I'm really happy about that! I was wondering however, my largest duck, a Cayuga...

We have probably 30 Muscovey ducks in our farm pond. We've had one of the young females go lame a few weeks ago, just sits around, won't walk. She will eat/drink if you put it in front of her. She's had a few blood blisters come up on her feet, that I've drained. I put her in the backyard...

Hi Friends! Today i noticed that Pompom Duck, my crested Magpie/Black swedish duck is almost dragging the back end of her belly over the ground. She has developed some kind of pouch between her legs. Looking at the other ducks i can see similar developments in all laying ducks, except for the...

Hi all! We made the decision to move to either San bernardino County or riverside county. We are going to focus on just ducks and we're wondering what the laws were. I can't find anything on ducks on their websites

Hi all, just registered, first time posting, on the 29th of November I hatched two new ducklings, other than one (now named Snowflake) having slightly splayed legs all had seemed fine, for about the first week they were fed a crumb / mashed boiled egg mixture and Snowflake gradually made a...

Hi All! My Swedish Duck Quackers somehow ripped her dew claw off! Just the claw on the end. It was bleeding a bit and I washed it in soapy water, then dried it and put super glue on it. It was still oozing a tiny bit of blood so I pressed a tiny piece of clean paper towel on it and it glued on...

Hello, I have four female ducks, two khaki campbells and two cherry valleys. A few months ago one of the cherry, Pebble was limping so I took her to the vet. They said it was probably something internal but they could not be sure until they had run more tests which would be very expensive and...

We got up this morning and checked on one of our ducks and found that she was very lethargic and acting entirely abnormal to her usual behaviour. she isn't standing and just sitting down. She isn't eating, although has tried a little bit, has drunken water but then proceeded to vomit. Any idea...

I am worried about the pet duck I am adopting. We are driving 12 hours from Delaware to Maine and I don't want her to be sick. Is there something I can give her? Is there anything else i can do or should do to make she is comfortable during our travels Abby

I have a healthy 4 year old male Black Australian swan that needs a mate. Do you have a mature female available, reasonably priced? Also open to giving up Gunther to a good forever home where he would be with a female. Price negotiable. Won't ship him so must be within driving distance of San...

Hello! My >1 year old female pekin duck hurt her leg last week when she got tangled in some briars. I tended to her wounds day-of and they seem to be healing nicely, but one week later and she still won't put weight on it and it sits out to the side. The toes are very swollen and she refuses to...

I would love to see if this will be the longes post and you can show off your pets and farm animals. This is my drake. Here is my rooster Strutter.

How much do a male and female together, khaki Campbell ducks go for? They are fully grown. Also how much would a Rouen duck age around 3-4 months old male go for?

Hey everyone, I have chickens and ducks but just yesterday one of my drakes, a Runner, who is coming into adulthood, has challenged the head drake, a Pekin. The Pekin doesn't want to fight and ran away and all day yesterday the Runner would not let him back into the flock. We were able to get...
