pekin duckling

Hi Everyone, A well-intentioned neighbor decided to deliver 4 adorable little ducklings to my door. While I appreciate the gesture having just lost my beloved rooster, I am in no way shape, or form equipped to take care of 4 little ducks - no matter how cute they are. I believe they are about 2...

I feel like a new mom all over again constantly worrying about my ducklings 😭 Dill has been panting so I turned down the heat on the heat lamp. I read that panting could be associated with heat or illness. Dill has been fine otherwise-eating, pooping, vocal, and energetic. He/she is currently...

Howdy hey. My name is Jamie and I don’t actually have chickens (yet) but instead a Pekin duckling! After getting him I had a lot of questions and most were answered on this forum so thought I would join. (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Very much new, found this...

Is it possible I’m hearing quacks out of a three week old Pekin? That seems crazy early.

I’m new to ducks and am wondering whether or not my pekin duckling’s reddish/brown feathers are normal since I find it strange for them to have feathers any other color than yellow/white. I’m also concerned since she’s almost 4 weeks but already looks like an old duck.

Hi everyone! a while back I posted a thread because I had some duckling bulling going on and my ducklings were bleeding from their wings. Those healed up pretty well, except one wing on one duckling. This duckling has continuously knocked the clot/scab off his or her wing, which makes it bleed...
