call duck

Hello, I hope you’re all well. Sadly early morning of yesterday my call duck Hope was killed by a predator in the garden. She was doing very well nesting on her eggs, Luckily all eight eggs were safely recovered and I checked that four of them are fully developed but I have lost track in days of...

Does anyone know if this is an internal pip? The duckling has been quite lively and moving his egg around the incubator and then we saw this, is it an internal pip or just where he’s been pushing against it? p.s the hole in the egg is so it doesn’t suffocate

Does anyone know if this is an internal pip at the bottom of the air sack? (Ignore the small ventilation hole in the egg, we made it so it wouldn’t suffocate)

Ive already made a similar post to this and tried the feedback I got from there with unfortunately no success. We've been trying to hatch a duckling for nearly 3 months now and haven't managed to hatch one. The Ducklings/Embryos develop well and always look healthy inside of the egg. Yet, when...

We have a call duck egg that is trying to internally pip, we first noticed it trying to internally pip on day 25 and it is currently day 26, about to be day 27 and it still hasn't managed to internally pip however we can still see it trying (We aren't opening the incubator we can see the air...

A family member had some call ducks hatch over the weekend, and I am wondering how much niacin to give them. I have nutritional yeast (Bob’s Red Mill brand) that I used for my silver appleyard ducklings last year. However, with call ducks being significant smaller, I am not sure what to do for...

we’ve been trying to incubate duck eggs for about two and a half months now with no success. We have gotten to day 26 and then the ducklings would just die. The temperature we’ve tried incubating them at is 37.5 degrees Celsius and the humidity is 50%. We’ve had about 15 fertilised eggs that...

Hello everyone, So I have a new little call duck (apple) around 6 weeks old, she currently has her own sectioned off area within my call ducks pen/coop. She can currently see and interact with my other two call duck a male (almond) and female (apricot) mating pair (just under 1 year old)...

One of my girls has foamy eye disease from over-mating and it’s quite sunken and swollen. At first I thought her eye had been pecked out and panicked, but it seems to still be there behind the swelling. She’s still eating and drinking, but her eye looks really bad. I could bring to the vet ER if...

Hey! So bit of a strange one. My brother keeps little call ducks and drakes, he has this one drake who killed all his children by drowning them once, drowned his partner and now.....................I discovered last night he had killed a fellow call duck....and...em...ate her? Like yesterday...

TLDR: I went for six ducks, and came home with fourteen that are in not so great shape. Hello everyone. I guess I'm posting to get some opinions and advice on some new ducks I just acquired today. Background: A semi-local gentleman posted his entire flock as needing rehomed due to his own...

We lost my daughter’s pastel drake, and have his lonely hen left by herself. My girls show with FFA at the local stock shows, any suggestions on where to get another showable duck for her to be with? We are not looking to breed so I think a hen or drake would work. The hen is last years...

This is Honeybee, we just got him recently. He is about 5-6 months old, male, call duck. He started twitching his wings randomly. Maybe stress from being in new place? Seizure? Sickness? He is eating and drinking fine, preening, bathing.

What is the best ratio for call ducks ? We have 7 call ducks , from several different locations. 2 drakes and 5 ducks First we got a pair, and then another pair, and then a bonded group of 3 girls . They tend to stick to their own cliques… the two pairs hang out together and the group of...

Hello all, I’m not sure the last time I’ve posted but I now have 7 ducks. The 4 new members are over 4 months old, 3 boys and 1 girl. My biggest of the babies is Eggnog, and recently he started lifting himself in the water (like bicycle kicks) and making a strange noise. He mostly does this...

Hi, new to ducks & have hatched our first ducklings this year. What colour do you think these call ducks are? They are around 6 weeks old in this photo. One is male and the other female. Thanks :)

Hello everyone, I am very new to call ducks, and very excited. Couple months ago, I purchased a dozen call duck eggs from a lady. 8 of them were actually fertilized, so very exciting moment. However, 2 stopped growing unfortunately. I had searched quite a bit information about call ducks before...

I think it would be cool to own ducks in the future (Khaki Campbell, Magpie, Indian Runner, and/or Call ducks) but where I live having a pond may or may not be feasible in the future. Advice is appreciated. Thx,

Hi, we currently have 9 call ducklings that are 5-6 weeks old. Could anyone tell me what colour they could be? Also any guesses on which could be male or female? This was our first time hatching and first time with ducklings so we have no idea! Thanks :)
