I have come to notice, that sometimes happens. Expecually with the skittish ones, they will grow to become more like wild ducks. Then house hold ducks, our pekins were very human friendly loved to eat food from our hands. Until we got our Welshy's. The Welshy's were skittish from the very start. As soon as we integrated them, all of the duck flock became skittish of us. It was sad really, but there really is nothing we can do about it. Besides go out and throw them food. We have gotten to where they will come closer and closer. But they really don't want to be touched or picked up.Ok so they have been outside for 5 days now. Could it be the change that has made them terrified of me now? They've always been a little skittish but it's only gotten worse since they were moved to the outdoor pen.
