It's been a week since I added two mallards to my flock of chickens. At first, they were extremely timid and would take cover and hide at the sight of me. After a week, they are warming up to me and their new home. They still won't eat out of my hand like the chickens do, but I understand that...

I have a raised deck at my house, and thought to myself, I'll make this one big run! With 4x4 posts and California-style chain link fence around the perimeter of the bottom of the deck, we have made it completely enclosed. My chicks now have 180 square feet to stretch their legs comfortably.
