Wing wrap
Hi! I started wrapping the wing of my goose and was wondering how many hours a day it needs to be wrapped or if I can take it off at night when she’s sleeping and her wing is “somewhat” in the position when wrapped. I’m assuming broken or sprained but no visible damage and I felt each bone and... -

Sprained or broken wing
I have a goose that is 5 months. She looks to have a broken or sprained wing after flying away, we found her. What can I do at home humanely without taking her to the vet to support this? Or do we think she absolutely needs the vet? -

Does my ducks crop look weird?
Came home this morning to Twinkies crop looking a little off. I know they can get real full if they eat a lot and sometimes they get real big after a meal. They had their breakfast and I’m assuming their worms that they always get this morning. Twinkies crop on the right side looks bigger than... -

Duck molting or something else?
Hi! My male Pekin, Twinkie Dean is losing all his feathers. They are all over the yard. I live in Ohio, it’s been a hot summer (I think). I think he is molting? He just turned 1 years old. Happy birthday to my gentleman! 🤍 I am convinced he’s just molting but wanted some opinions. The only... -

Duck puke
random question… can ducks puke because they are too full? My pekin just puked up like 4 earthworms… I saw him eat a bunch outside… could he be too full? He was drinking water and started puking in the water. Poor kid lol I hate when he pukes. The only other time my ducks have puked is riding... -

Do my ducks have wet feather?
I have noticed recently that both my male and female duck have been looking and getting really wet after bath time. Since it’s been cold, we limit outdoor baths, but it’s getting a little nicer (40 degrees) so I let them swim outside. We usually allow them in our bath tub every 1-2 days. We also... -

Rooster attacking hen
Hi. So I know that roosters have a tendency to be aggressive while mating with the hens. BUT, I have a rooster (who seems to be a little mentally and physically delayed, seriously). We actually thought he was a girl until we heard him crow one day. He is full grown, 8 months or so. Just started...- spope
