Oh no I hope he heals up quickly. Poor guy!

Didn't see the notifications for this! So sorry!

Here's an update photo from that night

That poor drake how is he today?

I currently have him outside in one of the fenced yards outside. I only came in for a few minutes to get a snack before I went out. I just thought I would check here and saw new posts so I decided to post the update photo of him.
I'll get video of him this time since he's outside.
He'll be coming back in soon.

Be sure the flies don’t get on him!!

Ignore the mess of the yard. We're still working on it, which is why I won't be leaving Colonel by himself in there. He was just getting some fresh air and a chance to see Duchess.

He looks alert. Wounds healing good?

Yup.
Before I got the video, I noticed that he actually let me get close to him

Drakes can be a bit standoffish it's part of their persona, they don't want their girls to think of them as mamas boys . lol Maybe try some meal worms to get him closer. Mine all will come around for meal worms but my Runner drake will still not take them from my hand. He's way to proud.

Just had to rescue Colonel while we were outside getting some fresh air. Got his head stuck in the chicken wire, still not sure how. I think he's embarrassed now because he won't go near the fence where Duchess is.
Duchess seems upset because of this.
