Thanks for the replies! I am going to try to get them into a routine again. I've had them in the coop for a week (and it's a big Amish coop -huge for only 3 ducks and no chickens) will try to post pic. I have food and a big water tray out there in the coop and also will keep trying to get...

Hi, We've had numerous chickens as backyard pets/eggs over the years and added ducks this year. We kept the ducklings in the house until they were feathered out. My kids held them, hand fed them, the ducklings imprinted. We let them out to the coop and run (it was just ducklings at this...
