Hi,
I have too call ducks.
When i let them out in the morning, the female is usually very vocal and goes straight for the food.
This moving she wasn't moving, I took her out her house and she looked dazed and confused. Her left wing and leg seemed to be shivering and shaking. When placed into the run she just stood there staring into space. When she did move it was very slow, and not in a straight line, almost like a limp. There appears to be no sign of physical injury.
Both ducks had a very nice weekend, most of which the spent bathing in fresh water, although its been a while since we changed out the hey where they sleep (about 4 weeks).
Any ideas what the problem is? Is she Ill? Or maybe was she about to lay? It hard to tell because we only get about 7-8 eggs a year from her so I've never observed her behavior while laying.
Any Ideas/advice?
Charlie
