Olecranon bursitis was diagnosed and the bursa was incised and drained. Generally, an olecranon bursitis will resolve by itself, and the fluid will be reabsorbed by the body over a few weeks. Elbowlift guards against olecranon bursitis, ulnar neuritis, pressure pain, pressure ulcers, and skin injury.
Males and female mallards and geese pair up in late fall. Nesting begins in early to mid Spring. Duck and goose nests are usually made away from the duck or goose's main body of water. The male and female will scout out the nest site together, looking for sites with low predator activity.
Store eggs for hatching at 55 degrees F and a relative humidity of 75 percent. Eggs stored longer than 2 weeks may decline in hatchability. If stored more than a week, turn eggs daily to prevent yolks from sticking to shells. Incubation. Muscovy ducks require 35 days of incubation; eggs of other domestic duck breeds require 28 days. A chicken hen or female duck can set on 9 to 11 duck eggs. Place the nest where it won't be disturbed during the incubation period and provide a convenient source of feed and water. The nest should be checked at hatching time.
