It’s been since April since we rescued our Maggie, and we have gone back and forth with a companion for her. I don’t really want a drake because everyone makes it seem like they are giant rapists.
Every time I talk to anyone with ducks, they always steer to the drakes.
Are drakes really as bad...
Alright, I’ve never had chickens or ducks so I’m a newbie (be gentle)
My rescue pekin just laid her third egg and I have no idea what to do with it
It isn’t fertilized (no drakes)
Do I wash them off? If so, how?
Do I refrigerate them? Leave them on the counter?
So far, I have dated them and left...
Ok, so I am worried about my ducks foot.
(Back story: just rescued her from an abandonment situation. Never owned birds of any kind before)
I randomly googled duck feet because our new little joy has the cutest little splat splat sounds of her feet and now I see posts about bumble feet.
she...
Why didn’t anyone tel me how much joy a duck would bring??? I would have gotten them years ago!!! No more dogs for me thank you, I’ll take that quacker over there.
Ok. So my husband cleaned up most of the poop before I could get a picture, but luckily she let one go in the pool immediately after I cleaned it. See photos
I will work on it today. She eats and drinks very well, we just brought her home on Friday. I know that she was eating a very weird plethora of things that the apartment residents were throwing her (she was stuck in a pond) ie bread and fries.
I hadn't noticed the stringy stuff all weekend, it...
Hi All,
My name is Carly and apparently I have a new duck
Someone threw her into an inescapable concrete run off pond at my work and she swam for 2 days before I could reach in and pull her out. She is very sweet and follows me around everywhere I go now.
I brought her home and set her up...
Hi,
Recently adopted a rescue duck (Friday)
She is my first duck/water foul I have ever been around. So I am new to this.
Yesterday she had white stringy stuff coming out of her vent. She hasn't laid any eggs since we brought her home.
Can someone help me?
