Pom POm headed duck question.
Comments (1)The (Cr) gene is a mutation that when homozygous is fatal and most die in the shell.. The skull opens in the embryonic stage and then closes, things dont always work out the best and sometimes the crests are problematic, some ducks will even have more severe problems, neurological. The crest skin, blood, feathers and so on. They can sometimes be injured by pecking from others. Its best to breed a crested to a non crested getting a percentage of cr duklings, breeding 2 ducks which are cr gives more crested ducklings but also more chances of problems....See MoreWhy is my pom pom tree turning brown inside?
Comments (4)its also possible .. that it was a HUGE transplant ... and its not being properly watered.. if only brandon had linked his own link ... lol .. but i will for him .. its a conifer ... all conifers shed their needles in 1 to 3 years .. and its always the oldest batch.. which as the plant grows.. are the interior ones ... such is increased by drought the prior year... severe winter .. and transplanting.. especially a huge transplant.. which is anything over 4 feet in my world ... insure proper water.. it is all that is needed ... as brandon noted.. if this years current growth starts browning... it is for sure not properly watered .. and it is severely stressed ... that is what you need to watch for ... ken Here is a link that might be useful: link...See MoreMy hosta has a pom pom growth
Comments (5)Will it continue to put out that tall growth if it's doing it now? What I'm asking is, is the plant an oddity that it does this or is the growth an oddity that won't likely occur again? If you look closely, just below and to the right of the pom pom it looks like another one is beginning. And right in the center of the frame -- among the foliage -- there's a capsule that looks like it could be the beginning of another one. I bought it for the tall display. I hope I can count on it....See MoreSpruce Pom Pom tree dying
