    That's a good point! If he gets better, I'll get him a huge tub of grit to enjoy. Right now, he's not doing well.

    Why does my duck twitch his head like this? (video)

    Haha... srry... my mom was panicking about him and she made posts too while we waited for the vet. That seems like it could be hers unless there's another duck with my duck's symptom.

    Why does my duck's wing look like this?

    I'm so happy to hear your duck had their feathers grow back. I was so concerned and heartbroken when I read the other replies to my post saying his feathers were cut too short and it likely hurt :((((((( I wish your other duck a speedy recovery ❤️

    Why does my duck's wing look like this?

    The person we got the duck from said that they clipped the duck's wing to prevent him from flying but I've looked up clipped pekin wings and none look like this :(
