Duck problems

[Miss Lydia]

How old are they? Could your duckling have stuck its bill into or under wire that may have cut the bill. What breeds?

 

[Lourdie]

She is a Rouen.6 weeks I think

 

[Miss Lydia]

How’s it looking today? Clean fresh water and splash of ACV will help heal an keep it disinfected.

its normal for ducks, as they fear you when they grow up, it is just a part of their lifestyle.

She’s much better it looks healed. I’m sorry but the feeling of me raising these animals, and having my other one died at birth still hurts me. Like I failed them. I can’t get over that feeling.

im sorry you lost one! Just do the best you can and ask as many questions you need to we’re here to help.

 

[Lourdie]

I don’t mean to make you all upset, but it’s hard, and not enough ducks will fill that space.

 

[Lourdie]

If my chickens get into fights do I need to help? And do ducks get into fights as well?

Ducks do go through a stage where they act like we’re ax murderers but they are also getting independent too which if we’ve had them from tint can make us feel sad since they don’t want us to pet or hold them any more

 

[Lourdie]

My chickens like to scratch at their food which leaves a huge mess. My ducks bill is crooked so she needs the food to be deep to get her bill in. But the mess attracts flies and is just a lot of work. What should I do? I have so many questions.
