mites with ducks?
« on: August 21, 2010, 10:57:44 am »
Do ducks suffer from mites as hens do? I've never found evidence with the ducks but as they are so nervous and shy can't really catch them easily or rummage through the house in the night without causing major upset... :&>

Yes, that has crossed my mind too - I don't see them scratching at all so presume they are OK.
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age
