Thanks @Nyla I'll pick some up tomorrow since I'm almost out of regular crumbles anyway.

I'll give them some boiled eggs as well I think, at least for a couple of days.

@Debs Flock I've been given prescriptions for it constantly by our pediatrician but can't even keep up with using it! Now they actually have a use haha.

Wow, I'm old. Those vitamins weren't around when my son was young.

I was surprised they pretty much give it as mandatory these days too!

Just got home from work. When I left my little duckling was still kinda wet and sleeping. I freaked out because I didnt see her at first but she's there and fluffy and starting to get around! Yay! To think she spent half an hour in a basket waiting for me to toss her out. So glad she peeped up when she did. Will definitely check better next time!

This Muscovy was suppose to be a female. I've had "her" since March 6th of this year. She was only about 3 months old at the time. Could she still be a she? Or is that bump on her beak dead give away?
Also I had her with 2 other females, a blue and a black pied. I was getting an egg a day and then got 2 eggs the past 2 days. I was thinking maybe she is a she and my blue isn't laying still? I just got my blue female 2 weeks ago. And I just started getting an egg a day about 4 days ago. Then 2 days after I started getting 2 eggs. The other female who is black pied is the same age as the "her" I think is a male. I bought the two with two older females from a member on here.

Is lavender pied the same thing as blue pied?
What would this be considered?

Oops I posted that on wrong thread lol. Thats what I get for late night posting!

I believe lavender has an even coloring. So any feather with color I'll be the same tone. No dark or light spots. I think anyway. For some reason I feel like there aren't lavender pied but I could easily be remembering wrong. I think its a blue. Just light blue. Theres a really good site called ugly duck farm I believe that has a pretty good explanation on colors and how you get them. I have a light colored blue baby I hope looks like that!

My females have a small bump on their caruncles she looks female body size and the way the legs sit under the body should also give you good idea.
