Runner duck choking!!!!
I have a runner duck. Approximately 3 months old who chokes a lot. Like lump in throat foams at the mouth almost every night. He usually seems to get it all out himself but tonight I had to help him.

Voice Sexing 6 Week Old Ducklings
I realize this is a question that has been asked many times before, and I've listened to a lot of videos, but I was hoping to get a few opinions. I'm fairly certain I have three little drakes, but as a new duck mom, I don't trust my own judgment. Forgive the video quality, I tried to get them... -
Itchy/Sneezy Duckling
First off, thank you all for helping me with my past questions since getting my ducklings last week, but when I search past BYC posts, I can't quite find an answer to an issue that one of my little girls is having.

Strange bump on duck? Please help. I’m new.
This bump is on our 8 day old blue runner male duckling. He is by far the biggest in our flock of 5. Is this just his oil gland? Is there supposed to be black on it? He keeps preening/pulling at it. I’m sorry if this is a silly question, we are new parents and want to make sure there isn’t... -
Candling pic clarification please
Does anyone know what I’m looking at, and more so, is it normal? This is my 1st time incubating duck eggs from our Runners. I have a 3rd egg in the incubator, not pictured and the embryo fills up the entire egg so it’s entirety is dark. It’s also a day 21er. Worth mentioning all 3 eggs have lots...- fieldandfaithhomesteading

Runner ducklings Vs. Regular Ducklings.
What are some of the physical differences in runner ducklings and regular ducklings? I am just curious because most of the pictures I see of runner ducklings look almost the same as any other duckling.- BethHeartsDucks

I need help deciding which breed to get!
Don’t worry I’ve done a lot of research on many different breeds of duck I just don’t know which to get. I’m looking for gentle and friendly ducks that can lay a lot of eggs. I won’t use them for meat because I’ll just stick to my chickens for that. The three breeds that caught my eye were...- InformationSeeker

Raising Runners In Winter
Month old Runner ducklings hatched from my BBS and fawn & white stock. Looks to me like 2 fawn & white, 2 silver, and 2 blue. They go out in a plastic mil-wrapped hoop tractor during the day (if warm enough) and spend their nights inside a heated garage bay. A straw-filled litter pan works...- FoodFreedomNow
