Hi All!
I'm the proud new mom of six 2month old Indian Runner ducks! One has an odd behavior that I'm not sure is healthy.
One of them stands up and makes a humping motion that looks like she is trying to lie an egg or defaecate. She will then have what looks like a minor spasm and she will jump backwards. After that her legs shake and she collapses into a sitting position. It is eats quite a bit and drinks plenty of water. The others do not do this. Does she have a health problem that I need to take care of or is this just and odd duck behavior?
I have had them for about 3 days now and they all behave normally and I am careful to feed a balanced diet of pellets, veggies and fruit. There is ample water available as well.
Any help would be appreciated
