I should add this shot in humans also causes D deficiency
That’s where my journey began finding out what I did
Not enough studies done with ducks and the shot unfortunately
So the vets tell us it’s safe and effective
They have zero data to go by
In Canada there is a smaller company that...
How are all the new baby Emu’s doing ?
My 3 munchkins are great
They have moved out of the house brooder into a pen in the duck coop
I let them out to run around with the ducks and chickens yesterday
They sure had a blast
Was only for an hour with me out there as they are still small
My girl passed away
She never stopped laying eggs either but she went from beautiful hard normal eggs to soft shells that often broke inside her
This caused infections many times
The last time I missed it somehow and she died in my arms
Was the worst decision I ever made was getting her...
I’m so sorry I missed this
When I assist I do it much different then I use to it any posts in articles
I make a tiny safety hole with a tac pin. Hole is only as big as the pin

I also rescued 2 babies a week old that had been left on slippery surface and legs...
I have 4 drakes

Getting so much better
I use to carry a blue pool noodle around with me

She was suppose to be a duck egg but hatched day 23 as a chicken 😂
That’s why her name is Chuck
Usually see shadowing along lower part of air cell , egg rocking and air cell dips up w egg pretty far really fast
That’s my key to...
Oh the poop has begun
The more they start to eat the more mess we get
But I’m happy all are eating now
All are walking great and no leg issues
Can’t wait to see these guys running around in the yard :)
Won’t take long as they grow fast
