Hi all, we have 2 Peking ducks that are 12 weeks old. They wander around the back yard during the day (about 1/3 acre) and we put then in their pen at night. We have a 16 by 20 foot deck that we caged in the bottom of for their pen. They do not like going in the pen at night, they make a big fuss about it. They have food and a pool under there but would rather lay in the clovers. We live in a smaller town of about 15,000 people so its not super country but not city either. We do have racoons and what not roaming around.
Question: are 12 week ducks old enough to stay out at night or do they have to be penned up for saftey?
Also how can we cut down on the amount of flies around their pen?
Thanks a bunch. I have attached a few pictures.----Elisabeth
