    Ruffled Feathers

    Hello friends! One of my Magpie ducks has had their feathers ruffled for at least a week now, probably closer to two weeks. Outside of that, he/she seems fine. I’m not sure on poop because we have 10 ducks so it’s hard to tell who did what. But all the poop I’ve seen in general seems normal. I...

    does anyone know why my ducks only trust me in certain conditions, and how to fix it?

    I have 4 Pekin ducks. They are 7 weeks and 4 days old and live in a very spacious run with some chickens of the same age. (They get along well and there's enough space so the ducks don't trample the chicks.) I only recently stopped putting the chicks and ducks back in their separate brooders at...

    I recently purchased these ducks and not sure what breed they are

    Hi, I recently purchased these 5 ducks including 4 young ducks and a 2 year old female duck. I've done some research on what breed and the previous owner said they were Welsh Harlequins. I think that's the case although I feel that the older duck may be a Silver Appleyard and the others being...

    Day 7 Egg Yolks Shifting

    My mother started incubating her duck eggs seven days ago. They're being hand turned 3-4 times a day, and she got them straight from a breeder, no shipping or rough handling besides brushing off the clumped mud and crap.
