I added the ACV to all 6 of their waters and the creek should finally be down tomorrow enough to get him to take a bath lol.

I'd be really surprised if it didn't clear right up with the steps you've taken.

Hope so. Neptune is my guy. I had to shoo him out of neighbors puddles a couple days ago and he just walked next to me complaining all the way back to house. Had to look pretty funny for people driving by lol.

Such characters, those drakes!

I can't wait for Mercury, my blue girly looking boy, to grow a bit and chill out like Neptune. So far the two boys get along great and as long as Mercury stays away from Andromida they never have spats.

Some of the chickens like to lay their eggs in large clay flower pots. Abigail decided to try out a flower pot also.

SO cute

Hey guys Neptune keeps getting foam in his eye. Respiratory? Happened a few time last couple months normally a day or two than gone but we're on day three and he had it last week in one eye this week both of them. Rest of the flock is clear. Anything I should be doing?

My boy Fred gets foamy eye quite frequently. Drives me crazy. He doesn't seem to like water. All of his girls are regular ducks and he will just walk around the pond when they are in it. He does go to the tank with them but he mostly stays on the bank.

Found my first eggs today from my scovies. They'll be going in the bator on Friday but do they take 32 days or 35 day to hatch? I've heard both lol

That is so clever! I will have to do that after I finish building my Muscovies their run and coop. Right now they are in an a-frame my fiance, in-law and I put together last year for chickens.

It was actually my hens' idea. I had a flower pot in the breeze-way and some snuck in there when the door was propped open, and after that they didn't forget about that flower pot, so I had to move it to their house. Now I have two flower pots in there, and they have to be a certain size to lay their eggs in.

Smart hens, as they make easy no construction nests if more need to be added.

I have two that refuse to bathe properly, and one gets that too. The first time I saw it, I panicked. I caught him and rinsed his eyes with eye wash and worried myself crazy. Now I realize the problem is his personal hygiene habits. There is enough water to go around here, but he just doesn't bathe like he should. The other white muscovy drake is the same way. I periodically bring them in and put them in the bathtub the get cleaned up. They love it, but will not often get cleaned up the same way outside.
