    Duck Saga: Return of the Quack Pack

    Hello friends and fowl, It's been a stressful few weeks as my 3 member Duck Squad was reduced to 2, my drake was acting aggressive but I missed the liveliness of several ducks in the backyard, I adopted 2 runners but there was only one female so having another drake made Bonkers go nuts, I kept...

    Bonkers goes to jail

    Sourland with the sage advice one again. That's what I was afriad of; I have another home for him if needed, I'm just sentimentally attached to this dumb little duck!

    Bonkers goes to jail

    Oh I know, he's just a duck being a duck. I'm very sad about the loss of my favorite duck butt I've managed to make it a little easier if I say I've gained a murder duck lol. I still love him and want the best for him, it just might not be with me.

    Bonkers goes to jail

    Hahaha no not on purpose! He got his name for a reason, but under my watch! I put it in a sling and he's fine, he just can't fly.

    Bonkers goes to jail

    Alright duck fam. The saga continues: I had an opportunity to adopt some runners from a neighbor who recently moved, and I meant to get two hens but there was only one female, but after the m u r d e r of my other hen by my drake Bonkers, never again would I leave an odd duck out. So I also...

    When is too cold for a hen to raise ducklings?

    Thanks! Do you think I should provide a heat lamp or will the hen be able to keep them warm?

    When is too cold for a hen to raise ducklings?

    Hi yall! After losing my runner, I'm left with a bonded pair of mallards and I'm pining for some new friends. My mallard hen has just started laying (7 months old) and I just think she would make such a great mum; my goal is to make her go broody on some fake eggs and then switch them out with...

    Aggressive drake in a bonded pair

    Thanks ajohn151. A say day indeed, and the tub is taking a brief hiatus as I clean it out after the incident. The pool is solar powered and fed by rainwater! Tried to make an aquaponics situation but the ducks dug up all the water celery I planted; instead it gets 24 hr circulation via a 250GPH...

    Aggressive drake in a bonded pair

    They're both about six months old; the hen just started laying eggs and I suspect that's what pushed him over the edge with the other one. Good news is that if we do decide to rehome him, I can still visit him on the farm!

    Aggressive drake in a bonded pair

    Thanks sourland, that's a relief to know :) I definitely have a soft spot for the hens but don't want to break up the brother/sister/lover bond. She seems to like him okay, but he would go bonkers if she wasn't around! I would like to get more ducks in the future , but my duck hut can only...

    Aggressive drake in a bonded pair

    Hey y'all! Today is a sad day, one of the members of our duck squad is no more. We have three little ducks: two mallards and one runner(?) mix. They've gotten along fine their whole life, the mallards grew up together and we adopted Faye from our neighbors. Then one day I find her in the...
