    Broken leg

    Maybe it’s the tendon he is just holding the leg up nothing seems to be sticking out. And he is able to move around the brooder but very unsteady.

    Ducks going in at night

    What did you do about food/water? I have 2 call ducks about 4 weeks in a small house. I was thinking I would give them fresh food water 3 times a day and maybe a mealworm treat when I lock my chicks up at night. Just want to make sure I’m not starving them.

    Ducks going in at night

    i read that a good way to get your ducks to go in every night is to keep them locked in their house for the first week. Any thoughts?

    Scared ducks

    Also any sugges How do you get them to go into their house each night. I was thinking about taking their food away in the afternoon than putting it in the house right before sunset but I’m worried they will make to big a mess with the water.
