    I have 3 (3 month old swedish ducks), 2 black and one blue. I noticed today one of the blacks , (her name is Tuxie) undercarriage is sagging (as the older ladies are) but to the right instead of centered in the middle. I'm not sure if this is normal?

    Duckling eyes stuck closed...?

    So our black swedish hatched 2.5 days ago now, had a bit of a troubled hatching with the yolk sac, but we're mainly worried about it's eyes. It looks like they're goopy or stuck shut...?

    Feeding newly hatched ducklings

    I have two newly hatched (1 day old) ducklings. There is no nearby feed store and I only have all-purpose chicken food. Can I feed them that or can I make them something else until we can make a trip to the feed store?

    Rehoming Black Swedish Drake, New York

    Hey guys, unfortunately I’m thinking about rehoming my drake. The other option would be to cull him, and while I don’t have an objection to this I would rather him get a nice new home. He will be 1yr in June, I hatched him and raised him from a baby so he is imprinted on me. I know this will...
