Some beautiful scovy girls i saw in the publix parking lot today, from the look of them I assume mother and daughter
I don't think I can right now just because catching them is always a really stressful situation especially by myself and we are still recovering from the hurricane right now and my duck run is currently destroyed so don't have anywhere to put them even temporarily. I will try to remember to make...
Hey all, just found these two beauties at the local park. The big black one's massive size and purple iridescent feathers are making me think muscovy hybrid wondering what yall think
She is still doing it a bit but less than she was 30 mins ago. It's 2 am so I've gotta get some sleep at this point. She is out with her sister she is eating and drinking and breathing so I think she may just need some time to work out whatever is going on. I will update in the morning.
She is continually dipping her whole beak all the way up to the nares into the water, and then opening her mouth and shaking her head. I can't see anything stuck but it seems like she is trying to get something out. I'm gonna move her outside to the coop for a bit so she has access to a pool to...
Anyone know what is going on here???
Just checked on her to top off her water like I do every night and she seems to be trying to get something out of her mouth. I looked down her throat and can't see anything and also felt her neck and can't feel anything but definitely am concerned
Okay interesting, yeah I think all I can really do here is just visit him and keep an eye on him and maybe if I happen to get a chance with him away from the water I can try to grab him and find him a home. I'll try to keep an eye out if he flaps to see if his wings are clipped
Yeah definirely a drake for sure he's got a low meep not a loud quack, and no nobody is there to harass them it's right down the street from my house and I've walked my dog there regularly for years and never seen anyone harassing the wildlife, only people visiting loved ones and people walking...
Yeah I'm really not sure, here is another video of him
Seems he made friends with a couple local mallards as you can see he is very similar in shape and size. Makes me feel better seeing him with friends last few times he has kinda been hanging out by himself. I'm 100% positive he can't fly...
I mean eventually I don't really see another option long term, but at the rate I'm making money now it's gonna be at least 6 months at the bare minimum probably closer to double that.
Sorry didn't check this thread for awhile. No she was not on antibiotics at any point and she is 4 years old.
Just wanted to update here saying it seems I have successfully stopped her egg systems she has not laid for the last 5 days and is otherwise doing good so hopefully she will continue...
I went back again tonight but he is very elusive, I got very wet and muddy and he still escaped me into the tall grass way too thick for me to chase him into. I'm gonna go with my dad tomorrow and hopefully we can get him with 2 people I know I'll be able to get him if I can just get him away...
