I have three 4 month old cayuga ducks, one duck and two drakes which I hatched myself. I noticed yesterday that one of the drakes had what looked like an earthworm come out of its vent when it did a poo. I have instantly assumed they had worms and started them on a course of flubenvet. I have seen it happen more times since then and after having done a bit more research online I have discovered it might actually be the drakes penis!
I don't know how to know for sure? They were wormed about 6 weeks ago but we have a lot of wild birds here which they come into contact with. So far I have not seen this worm thing coming out of the duck but on the other hand would a drakes penis come out of the vent while it poops? It's happening very frequently. But I would expect parasitic worms to be much thinner, this was definitely thick like an earthworm with a little funny flatter bit on the end, it is not corkscrewy. Sorry I can't upload a photo

Phew, I am really glad, is it normal for the little fella to pop out when he has a poo? I can't upload photos as I only have a kindle for internet. Sorry fleecewife, you'll have to get your fix from someone else! Lol :&> :&>

Clarebella was he winking at the time, if so then you should be worried lol :excited:
-
Lol, no he was pooping so he must be even more of a deviant!!

I had an uncle, who told my aunt that he would rather have a good s*it than have sex. No accounting for taste is there? When my aunt passed away, he did get very friendly with another man who lived nearby, so perhaps that was the reason!!

Lol, this thread really is degenerating! Hopefully my drake will stick to the ladies

Clarabelle, I think the official name is "prolaps" in your wee drake's case ;) . Not exactly pathological but sometimes it's not going back to where it should be when not in use :roflanim: .
Guys, what are you all like :&> :&> :&> :&> :o :roflanim:
