First, unlike other domestic birds, ducks do not require wing clipping. They are far too heavy to fly successfully even if they attempt to do so. To prevent your ducks from getting injured when climbing in or out of their pool, provide a sturdy, safe ramp. Their cages should also be covered if the lining is made of wire.

 
If you notice any bare spots around the head of a female duck, do not be alarmed as this is likely caused by mating behaviour. Males usually release a mucous during the mating process and you can help remedy this by allowing your ducks to bathe regularly. Visit a veterinarian D’ilberville if necessary for more info.

Overall, in order to keep your ducks healthy, keep their surroundings and shelter as clean as possible at all times. This includes the water that they swim in and the food that they eat.
