These are all of my current ones

So introduce them outside of the pen? And I'm honestly not sure. This I my first time raising ducklings. From what I know, I have one female so far. She's the smallest and had a rounded tail. I've been told that rounded tails mean female and straight tails mean male in most cases

Alright thank you. I have a pretty big open wired dog crate I can use and some left over fencing somewhere.

They're all around the same age. Mine are about 3 months and so are the others. Mine get along perfectly fine, but they've been together since birth lol.

Hi I was wondering how easy it is to introduce two flocks of ducklings? Muscovies specifically. The mother isn't around. It's 6 ducklings and I'm getting 3 more. I want to be sure no bullying or fighting will occur due to them being from different flocks. How easy would it be to throw them all...

Alright thank you! And when incubating, should I start incubating whenever the egg is first layed? I understand this is the best way to get the best result hatching wise and imprinting.

Hey all. So I have 6 muscovy babies. Unfortunately the mama died a couple weeks ago so now they're on their own. I made them a pen. They were free ranging before hand but I had to make them a pen since the mom and two ducklings got killed... I was wondering how I could raise these babies now...

This beginner here has another question. Currently I have a pen set uo around my duck and ducklings nest so they can't get out. On accident mama has taken them out now three times in the pond and exploring in it. Is tho safe? I've leared that you have to keep them in the pen for their first week...

I give them most I my Time when I'm home so I'm sure they're safe and sound. My only issue with letting them out is she likes to tske them to the pond immediately because she's usually ready to wash or from what I've noticed, show them around the pond. I got worried for a second because she was...

Dog food bowl ***

Alright thank you. I don't have one but I have a tractor supply right down the road from me so ill go check out what they have. I haven't seen anymore snapping turtles since though. But currently the babbies are bathing in a God food bowl that's big enough to fit about five at once. I change the...
