    Testing Duck Eggs?

    we use the water test........take a clear glass fill it up with warm water, if it sinks to bottom and lays flat it's a week or less old, if the fat end of the eggs starts to float up it's 2 weeks old, if whole egg floats right above the bottom of glass....chunk it!!

    How long should I keep my new ducks inside before letting them free range?

    we usually keep our new ducks up for a couple days, then turn them loose to free range with the rest and never had a problem with any of them running off...if it is a breed that can fly, i would advise clipping their wings

    We love our ducks, we could never eat duck meat but once we tried a duck egg we much prefer them over chicken eggs now

    How should I get my ducks to like me

    we've found treats like tomatoes and interaction with them during bath time in pool(via spraying down with water hose when it's real hot, or just the waggle they get in their tail when they see you refilling their pool with fresh water)
