I'm thinking about getting a Muscovy duck for my two Rouen females. Can I put the Muscovy duck right in the pen with them or will I have to gradually let them be together?
Okay thank you! We want to raise him and take care of him but we'd like if he could stay outside but if doesn't like it then we will keep him indoors with us
I have a duckling that is a few days old that we took from the nest after the moms left him there only a few hours after coming out of the shell. He is now attached to me and whenever I try to put him back outside with his mothers and siblings, he runs back to me and chirps very loudly. I'm not...
My batch of ducklings just hatched and this one was left behind after just hatching. I have taken him inside and out him under a heat lamp and he seems to be doing fine but any other tips?
Okay that makes sense, I take them everyday because I never saw them sitting on them thank you for the help!
One more question: will she keep laying more eggs or just keep the one she has
hello everyone, I was wondering if it is normal for my Rouen ducks to only sit on there eggs in the night? Will they develop like that or should I get an incubator?
I was wondering if it's okay to have two females and one male. One of my males, Oscar recently died and I'm not sure if the other male is lonely without him. I'm not ready to own another duck but I will get him another male if he needs a friend.
I have four ducks in total, two males and two females.
They are all about a year old.
They have a great own and house for them to sleep in at night which they love. I always change the hay for them so it's nice and comfy but I haven't seen any signs of a nest being built.
Everyday I go out...
