DUCK POOP

[Chickenmarsala]

Hi everyone. Today I was out with my duck and noticed he was pooping a dark green color. Is this normal? He has never done this before. Also I noticed his tummy is making a weird noise, it almost sounds like a growling noise. Is that normal?

What has he been eating, have you given any vegetables?

How old and do you keep food out always during the day?

Growling could mean hungry or tummy upset.

Could you get a picture of your duck?

My duck got hurt earlier this year and almost died... didnt eat or drink, her stomach growled really loud like that. I think duck's tummys growl just like people's do when they are hungry

I haven't given him any vegetables recently. He is about 6 or 7 months old I think. I've been feeding him all flock and he has access to food 24/7. Do I need to change his food maybe?

Oh no I'm sorry to hear about that! He always has food to eat so I can't imagine that he's hungry. Maybe he just needs some different food?
