    I'm OD'ing on niacin right now, so I thought I'd pop in to see how the rest of you are.

    Sheesh. I've frequented other groups since I left here and don't remember it being like this here. Everything wrong with a duck can apparently be treated with niacin, and I'm an idiot for thinking otherwise. Feather loss, bill discoloring, sinus infections, bumble foot, wry neck, wry tail...

    The Duck Thread

    I'm going to be away from BYC for a good while and didn't want to just disappear without saying anything. I've disabled all my email notifications other than for PM, but you can PM me if you'd like my personal email address. I don't want to post it here since there are a lot of bots on the...

    A vine to a magical place if you're up to climbing it.

    The Duck Thread

    Thank you, Julie, and yes, her name was where my nick came from many years ago, 16 or 17 years ago. Jade hadn't been herself for a while, months. She couldn't keep her balance, and she had a hard time eating until we adjusted her feeding situation. The vet thought it was possible she'd had a...

    Show off your house ducks!

    My hubby isn't fond of chickens, so I'm trying to entice him. I might have to give all of you his cell number so you can call him and say, "Must have Silkies, must have Silkies..."

    Show off your house ducks!

    Yes, that one is a roo. His name is Socrates, and he's not mine. He's a show bird and his owner Stephanie keeps him indoors mostly to keep him in pristine condition. I showed Scott a pic of him a while back and he said, "What is that thing? A tribble?"

    Show off your house ducks!

    If you mean the one I posted, they mostly don't. That's a house chicken.

    The Duck Thread

    It makes complete sense. I've had Persian cats most of my adult life. The reason I was off BYC for the first week was that work went crazy, and the reason I was away after that on the very day I intended to come back is that my sweet blue Persian kitty Jade that I'd had for more than 18 years...

    What is wrong with this ducks bill? How can I help him?

    Oh my gosh. I didn't even thing to ask about his leg. That was dumb. Did you find him in a local pond/lake?

    The Duck Thread

    LOL. So what do you do with those? (When you say "bulls," I'm assuming you mean the bovine type.)

    baby duck with lots of problems

    Hey Patty! We give ours corn in the cold weather, though they usually won't touch it. Probably because they're not used to it. Some of the higher-end breeders say you can mix in cat kibble, but what @Miss Lydia recommends is probably just as good if not better. The food she mentioned looks...

    Drugs that can be used in Ducks - no prescription needed

    My goodness. I would never have thought some of this stuff was available OTC.
