What's the scoop on Duck POOP!?

[tjo804]

They look pretty normal to me!

Great, I have been trying to watch for signs of heat problems been in the feel like 100 or more all spring here.

Edit to add. I read too much white or mucous like is a problem.

I am following this thread as I too had a ‘poo’ question but so far all is answered...

My ducks poop always seems like a watery splat. They are about 24 weeks old. How do I know if it’s normal or diarrhea? It’s always like this. It used to be more solid when they were babies but now it’s always a wet splat.

I get splats like that and sometimes more water duck drink a lot of water so they really aren’t going to have very firm poop then add in the mud and dirt and no telling what else and yep you get splats

I know from experience that neon lime green poop is serious. Again, as you said, not bright grassy or pea green but neon lime like:

hi my ducks are doing these poops and I don’t know if its normal. It’s sorta like green and brown. I’ll send through a pic
Is this normal?

What all are you feeding them?

I’d say that’s pretty normal with what they are eating. Are they acting okay?

yeah they’re acting normal. They’re 4 weeks old today and they’re becoming white (because they are Pekins) also just Thought I would ask you, since They are 4 weeks now do they still need chick starter? If they don’t need it anymore what else do i feed them?
