Two questions:
First, can you bathe ducks? I men mine are outside all day playing, swimming, etc and I bring them inside in the evening. They bathe and preen themselves daily but I wouldn't mind scrubbing them up with baby shampoo then hosing them off? Is that safe or is it a crazy idea?
Second: my female and drake molted a couple months ago. Now its as if the drake is molting again, every morning there's at least a dozen feathers, and today getting out of the pool as they were cleaning themselves, all loose feathers came from him. His head and back look a little unruly as if he's molting again. Can this happen or what is happening?
