My ducklings are 3 weeks old tomorrow and I want to get them out side by 4 weeks. The lady I got them off said that irk would be fine to let them waddle around our garden and then lock them up in a dog kennel at night. I am trying to get them used to being outside by letting them walk around during the day and them bring them in at night. The only problem is that when I'm not out there, they always peep. Really loudly too. I have a full window door and they always stand on the step and peep. We like to get them out whenever we Can (no bad weather and not windy.) Also when ever I leave the doors open, they jump in and waddle through my house to the kitchen or wherever I am. They just stand at my feet and twist their heads round. They look so cute and innocent I just pick them up and put them down out side again. Is there anyway that I can stop all of this noise?
