I'm new to this site and I'm really hoping I can find some answers here. I have only had ducks for about 3 maybe 4 years now. I started with a male Indian runner, then my husband rescued a female Muscovy. Long story short she hatched eggs that following July unfortunately my bass found most of them to be delicious. I now have one male and two females, my females wing and tail feathers look horrible like skeletons I have checked for mites, dirty/clogged oil gland, I have started giving them more protein and still nothing works. I have done research on when they molt thinking maybe that might be it and I'm just not sure. It's just my females Mo the male is doing great. This will be there second winter I worry that they won't make it with there feathers in the shape that they are in. You may have to zoom in to see they are not to social they will eat from my hand on there terms but it's a trick to catch them.
