What’s wrong with my duck??

[Gdove419]

View attachment 1491977 I have 5 khaki Campbell ducks, 3 females and 2 males. This morning I noticed one of the males has something prolapsed from his bottom. I do not know what to do about this..any tips or suggestions?? He doesn’t seem very bothered by it..

Your drake has a prolapse you need to keep it very clean and lubed up and try to get it to retract. Or other option is to take him to the vet. You def don't want it to get infected. Maybe a nice soak in tepid water will help him get it back inside himself. Keep him from mating till it stays in for good.

That's his Doodle hanging out. Provide him a pool to swim in. My Drake prolapsed his and for a couple of months it stayed out. The tip turned black so I cut off the end of it and he is back to breeding without any issues.

Will it go back in on its own? Or should I try to work it back in? Thanks for the advice!

Take him out and flip him onto your lap. Vaseline him Penis and massage it. Sometimes they go back in. Give it a good cleaning with water first. Inside the sheath too because debris could be blocking it from going in. Drakes Need pools of water at all times during breeding or that can happen.

Definitely keep him separated till you figure out what to do.

Can you get a close up of it in you picture it looks like maybe the tip is very dirty or it died. If dirty you need to clean it off really well. If it's dead, I think you will have to remove the dead tissue.

Wasn't a big deal for Casanova. Tip died and cut it off at the live tissue. I have Ducklings as I type...Locked him up for two days recovery and bred all my Hens..

Glad he is better. Curiously, did you cut it off or did someone with medical experience do it?
