Hello all, I am in a desperate situation. There is a wild mallard with a heavily broken beak. She also has a duckling, which is why I haven’t taken her to the vets or contacted the wildlife centre as I think catching both will be beyond impossible and extremely distressing. Plus I think they...

Mary Lou is all ok! Complete recovery within 48hours. It looks as though she had the Coccidiosis however a very mild form and she must have been very strong that kept her alive. Her faeces was normal within 36 hours and she was eating within 48hours. Thank you. 😊

Hello again Her faeces isn’t smelly. She seems a lot mire chirpy now. She has started eating I don’t know if she has laid an egg. I shall keep an eye on her, but I think she is improving greatly. Maybe a 24 hour bug? the apple cider vinegar may have helped? who knows! thank you for your help...

Hello Azygous thank you for responding! I’ve attached a video of her, she’s made the night! Phew! She was alert and standing. Slightly docile and was keeping away from the other chickens. However, she had slept on an egg yoke and was allowing the others to eat it off even though it had gone...

Hello all. My Mary-Lou is not herself. I found her breathing deeply in the coop during the day, through her mouth. I picked her up, which normally is a fight. She was limp. I syringed water into her but yellow discharge/mucus came out the other end straight away. In the evening, gave her more...

Oh my goodness... this link is amazing! I really needed this when my chickens had Bumblefoot in lockdown. I couldn’t access any VET for medical assistance! I hope they deliver to the UK! I shall also purchase these for future use as it is very useful indeed. Many thanks Isaac 😊

Oh my

I agree, I shall ask the sanctuary to pick her up when they are here this week. (Another story - a Canada Goose with a dislocated leg) Thank you.

I have not managed to handle the duckling. I have fed her twice a day without fail. She is still well. I have looked into why she has them. She is scratching herself and causing an infection. It comes and goes, but doesn’t seem to be bothered by it. I will keep an eye on her as I have quite...

Will do! Thanks for your support. 😊

Thank you Miss Lydia. I shall catch her and check her out then drop her off at the charity for further inspection. Appreciate your assistance. 🙂

Hi aart Thanks for the info, really clear too, how did you know I was terrible at following instructions? 🤣 So, now you know I’m from the UK and we’ve had very warm still weather. Nothing has moved, not a leaf, the humidity is high. It has been like this for a week possibly. They are not...

Hello Miss Lydia Thank you for your message. I shall try my best to catch her and look in her mouth, before I do, what should I be looking for in her mouth? I feed her Floating duck pellets. I change the water trough every day, even though we are on a bank of a river. She pushes bubbles...
