Hey all long time no see, 4 days ago my ducko pipsqueak laid a pretty nasty looking soft shell egg in the pool so I've been giving her daily calcium supplements since, but the next day I noticed it looked like another egg was in her chamber and after feeling it through her it is clearly another...

Hey guys it's been awhile Life has been very complicated lately. My duckos have been doing food for awhile but yesterday I noticed Karen just wasn't really moving around at all. After she was sitting in the same spot for a couple hours yesterday I went out to check on her and she had plenty of...

Hello some meanie dumped these beautiful ducks at my local park the other day, they are all pretty young id say about 1.5 months, and they are very closely bonded seem to be raised together as ducklings. Usually I bring ducks to spca, but they don't take muscovy so I would really like to find a...

Today I was extremely thankful that I hired people to build a very sturdy coop, with hurricane Ian coming through it actually didn't hit my area that bad, only about 40mph winds, but somehow light rain and winds managed to knock MASSIVE tree directly over my coop and run and the back of my...

Hey all, my duck Penguin recently recovered from being very sick. I just went out today to check on her and she has bugs all over her face, I checked my other ducks and a few of them have these bugs. I sprayed the ducks and the area down with permethrin, and ordered this bird bug spray on...

Hey guys. When I went out this morning everything was normal all ducks were happy and healthy. I just went out at about 9 pm to check on them and saw penguin laying in a place I have never seen her laying before. She just seemed a bit off so I brought her inside. Now she is just laying on my...

People will never learn.. found these three beauties at my local park, they just showed up today freshly dumped off. I'll be trying to go catch them tonight. Seem to be female so they probably won't make it through the night as there are about a dozen sex deprived male ducks that all stack on...

It's always the most heartbreaking thing to go out in the morning and see one of my babies injured. Penguin's face got attacked I assume by Karen because she is broody right now. So far I have washed it out with pet shampoo and put neosporin on it, and i brought her into the house to hang out...

Hello all, unfortunately today during my daily visit to the park there are some new ducks that are freshly dumped. They are beautiful pekins, seem to be 1 boy and 3 girls. I'd love to take them in, but I already have the maximum amount of ducks I'm allowed to in my area. I was wondering if...

Just wondering if this is anything for me to be concerned about. Some of you know that one of my ducks who flew away a year ago recently came back and I returned her to my other ducks. One of my ducks, Penguin, who she didn't know before, is kind of being a bully to her but nothing too crazy...

Hello, I recently hatched a couple eggs from a feral peacock with one of my ducks. Today after my girlfriend was holding the baby peacock, she started getting bit by bugs. About a dozen little bites popped up on her over an hour and we found this little thing that seems like it could be a mite...

Hello, for the past couple days my duck named Penguin has been broody and laying on some fertile peafowl eggs. I'll use this thread just to keep updated with what is happening. Basically how it started is my mom's house has dozens of feral peafowl running around, and we found a nest with all...

Found this little guy on the edge of the water at the park, looks pretty bad. Bringing him to vet as soon as they open tomorrow. Planning on just rinsing out the wound and putting some neosporin, anything else that I could do to help and make sure he makes it to the morning??

Hello I figured I'd post this in the hatching eggs forum because the peafowl forum isn't very active. I've got a peahen nesting on top of an old fountain. My concern is she doesn't really seem to have built much of a nest at all. She's just sitting in dirt. Will the eggs stay warm enough? I left...

Well, I got a very concerning letter in the mail this morning. "It has been brought to our attention, and confirmed by a field inspection conducted by this department.............. in that this property which is zoned, Residential, is in apparent violation of; The keeping and maintaining of...

My duck Pigeon has been acting off today. Earlier in the day she was just hiding under the coop standing up for a few hours, then I took her out from down there and she just went into the bushes to do the same thing. I brought her in and instantly got a weird poop. She's had egg laying issues in...

Hello! I have seen quite a few posts in my time on this forum that all have a similar problem. The problem is that they bring their ducks out to their pond for the first time, and the ducks have too much fun and just never want to leave the pond. The thing I have seen most suggested by people...

Figured I'd make a thread just in case, because I personally have never seen a poop like this. I've never seen one this light and Pigeon just pooped a few of them like it, should I be concerned?

I'm writing this at red lights on the way to the vet, is there any hope for this one? I think he got attacked by a crow WARNING GRAPHIC PICTURE

On my daily trip to the park on my way back home I found this guy in the road, then it seemed like he was trying to fly over the fence into the park but he just kept flying into the fence. I couldn't really tell if he was injured but since he was in the road I was thinking he might have gotten...
