Hi, I'm Josh. I built Duck Friends because three ducklings we got on a whim during lockdown became family, and I learned the hard way how much misinformation and red tape pet-duck owners deal with.
A few things about how this place works:
• It's a forum, not a feed. Threads live in spaces by topic, so answers stay findable instead of scrolling away.
• Say where you are and how old your birds are when you ask a question. It's the first thing anyone will want to know.
• Be kind. Advice here comes from other owners, not vets. If a bird is limping, off her feet, or struggling, ring a clinic first and post second — the Vet Directory in the menu is searchable by ZIP.
• See something wrong? Use the Report link on any post. The full community guidelines are linked in the footer.
Now tell us about your flock: how many, which breeds, how long you've had them, and what you're hoping to learn here.
