Hi everyone! I am in Levant, ME. I have a male Black Swedish duck that I need to rehome. I have too many males, especially since I lost one of my girls in December. I’m sad to see him go, but my other 2 boys aren’t very fond of him. Please let me know if you or someone you know would like to...
My two ducks got picked off by a fox 28 days ago. I had some eggs so I put them in an incubator and one has already pipped! It happened over 12 hours ago and no progress. I would not be worried but the pip is so so so small I am worried that it is not getting any oxygen. Here is a photo and...
My 2 year old kahki Campbell has been acting off. Today she still was: not really going out with her sister, staying nested in their enclosure, even going back into their hut. I was wondering if she was just struggling with an egg but even her sister seemed concerned and came to get us and bring...
Hello! My flock has 3 adult female ducks, 2 adult male ducks, and a juvenile female and male duck (7 ducks). Recently, we decided to give away the 2 adult male ducks to a friend. Although they were nice to humans and let us pick them up, they would bully the other ducks (they would rip off the...
Hi! New here, but I need some help.
Four-month old female Pekin. Normal height and weight, very lethargic and weak.
Have been trying to integrate my two new male and female Pekin ducklings into my coop with other one-year old male Mallard. His previous mate escaped and disappeared. He usually...
Prepare yourselves. I have a suprise. I just hatched out a SILVER Cayuga. That's right. A SILVER Cayuga. Their parent stock are black Cayugas. I was under the impression that Cayugas were black and only black. But this little guy just hatched out and he is silver. I'm talking with all of my...

Hello everyone, I inherited three (mallard) duck eggs (it's a long but cool story) and one has hatched! The little guy is out and waddling around the incubator. After week 3 candling we didn't feel one egg was alive but it's still in there just in case. The other candled fine and we are...
Hey all,
We had a pekin who was a runt. He finally started growing, quickly. He has developed a niacin deficiency.. I’ve been giving him 1ML of vitamin B along with 5ML of vitamin B in their water religiously for 2 weeks.
He got better for just a few days but is now back to falling over while...
Hello,
New to ducks. Have 3 pekin, 2 female and 1 male, well I think by the voices. They are about 4 months old. Last night one of the ducks was in the water late but did not think much of it, but then this morning she was in the water when I went out along with the other female. Not sure if...
I live in Jacksonville Florida and can’t seem to find a suitable home or rescue facility near me for a disabled duckling. She is blind in one eye and was born this way. She slowly started keeping her neck bent in the direction of the eye she favors so it affects her coordination but other than...
I need help with why my duckling is biting everything? My mother’s coworker brought three ducklings eggs but unfortunately only one of the three ducklings survived and he had let us take care of it. The duckling is almost two weeks old, it’s in good health and seems to have taken a huge liking...

Hi everyone! This is my first post on this forum! I'm hatching a couple of Swedish Blues, and it's currently day 22! I just candled them and they are all moving pretty well, have strong veins and large air cells, and are pressed up against the air cells! One or two of the ducks even look like...
The duck has started pipping I believe last night or this morning. He has been trying to break through the membrane for a day. I incubated the egg on April 8th. The breed is one of adult ducks pictured.
There are orange/red spots appearing on the egg on the outside as well on the inside. It...
