The Duck Thread

[Ravynscroft]

Question, we bought two ducklings yesterday, one appears to have "bags" under its eyes, sorry for the poor quality pic. Hoping someone can help

Need a clear pic out from the red heat light... could be matted down, eye infection, sinus infections or just extra pudgey in the face... can't tell without better pic though, sorry...

No sinus issues, redness etc. Acting normal. No discharge. I'll get s better pic in the morning, it was just something I noticed as they were resting face to face.

Sorry not ducks but at least I know I can have some babies that make it.

So precious

That is an adorable pic @cluckylady812 maybe dehydration? Just a guess though.

The eleven day olds.

The two day olds.

Dan!! I am stupified. They are so dang cute. They are children duxs. They are bitty and yellow and peepy and have LITTLE webbed feets. Big difference in size from 2 to 11 days. Thank you for the tag

We had a bunch of rain the other day so our stream flooded, and the ducks went for a swim.

Just fyi, sinus infections in waterfowl/poultry don't usually have discharge, it's usually just a bit of swelling in the face/cheeks as infection in them tends to be hard/cheesy as opposed to liquid pus like mammals get...

That's a good guess too!
