Such sweet and very cute little things. I love ducks. Precious.

What is Pocahontas (Cayuga) thinking???

HELP ME I CAN'T GET DOWN.

Clearly Tevye doesn't care. His snooter is buried in the bucket.

What is Wobs thinking?

Spring time is coming... I feel my hormones rising... I need some Chapbeak... Well, better get some rest, ruling the world won't happen on a sleepy groggy head.

Ugh. He SO needs chapbeak. I rub a little Vaseline on his bill at night, but the weather here is just so dry!

It's just hormones. Both my drakes get it every spring (Tevye a little and Kaine looks like his bill will just fall apart.) Usually goes away by late summer.

Not Wobs! The red color is definitely hormonal, but his bill has always been flaky like that. Oddly, Bean's is fine. I dunno if it's a white duck thing or what, I know unpigmented animals across all orders tend to have skin issues, and poor Wobs IS a teensy bit inbred given his champion bloodline.

If it's all year then it's probably something else. None of my 13 girls have it and both of my drakes get like that seasonally.



Here is Kaine last year moderate - he gets much worse, then it goes away.



Recent pic of Kaine. Nice Bill. Starting to get some red though so not long...
