i have a few ducks that refuse to go in the pools theyll drink out of em but will not go in. i just let them make there decisions

i think you answered your own question.. muscovy is what you want. theyre everything you pretty much described. khakis are loud and they dig up the lawn. and not the greatest meat birds. khakis are one of my favs but they dont fit your wants

i have to find 30 a day LOLOL

i personally wont incubate eggs that are cracked. i have tried in the past and the success rate is not good. bacteria gets through the crack. i do like that you tried and i hope the best of luck with the one you have!

in my opinion a dirt floor. dirt wont rot away like wood. ducks dont need heat. but with it being pretty hot they would appreciate the cool ground!

imo. for ease of cleaning a nice green treated wood floor that has been painted. with bedding... if you wanna go for the cheaper side the dirt with some bedding would also suffice

if its the smell holding you back just get them! your hardly going to notice a difference with just two ducks.

consider yourself lucky! the Easter egg hunt every morning is def a labor of love! i will note that my pekins and khakis are the worst. the cayugas seem to prefer atleast laying them on bedding. LOL

def normal ducks arent like chickens. they will lay wherever they happen to be at the time.. only when they want to hatch the eggs they make a nest. atleast in my experiance.

correct golden 300 are one of the very few that can be sexed by looks at this age.

golden 300 looks to be a girl and a boy!

I personally love my anconas. they are very good layers. quiet and i have never even seen them attempt to fly... my khakis are good layers as well but they could fly if wanted.

she has friends right not a sole duck? if shes eating and drinking i would wathc her closely but wouldnt start giving her anything yet

im sorry for your loss..

go fishing catch some bullheads. that pond will be clean in a few days. and the ducks will enjoy some protein

ive had this happen with a rouen and a khaki. what seemed to hep was i got some selenium from tsc. its meant for goats just give the duck a pea sized dose once a day. to much can harm him. keep him seperate.

it will run its course i wouldnt worry to much about her.

i skipped to the third paragraph..... :( being that he isnt 100% i retract my statement. i still would put him in there supervised. but not leave him. wait till breeding season is done.

i myself just just let them be together right away no matter what there going to establish a pecking order.. but it usually takes all of 5 mins and then its done and over with.

i agree she probably is just molting to her adult plummage.. no way shes broody...
