Do shipped Mandarin ducklings have a good survival rate?
I would think that the more "wild-type" ducklings would have a harder time than your standard domestic ducklings, but I haven't dealt with Mandarins or Woodies(yet).
I hope to get some one day and I want to know if it's better to buy eggs, ducklings, adolescents, or adults. That way when the day comes( a long time from now -.- ) I'll know.
I sold the pair of Mandies I had but have always loved them...I wonder, though, if they're paired off can you combine normal, apricot, and whites in a single flight pen successfully and keep the colors separate or are they like MDs and take any piece of tail that they can get? I'd actually thought I might build a flight pen when I get moved into town & keep a few but I'm not happy with just one variety of anything!
