    New Duckling Owner. Need advice.

    I finally got my ducky a friend!! The new duckling is a 2 1/2 week old Muscovy. It's a little bigger than the first duckling but they took to each other perfectly. Little duckling was overjoyed and practically sat on top of the new one in order to be close to him and preen each other. Bad news...

    New Duckling Owner. Need advice.

    I have to get batteries for my camera before I get to take good pictures. I have 1 or 2 on my phone but cant access them right now. I finally found out what my duck is!!! I know a person that knows the person who hatched them. Little Duckie is a Muscovy!!! I think I'll go join the Muscovy...

    I figured out what duckie's bill movement means. I'm guessing he was hand fed wherever he was hatched. Everytome I reach for him he opens his bill and stares at me. I tried reaching in with his feed and he happily set away to munching from my hand. :) it's the cutest thing.

    Thank you all for your advice. I realize how hard headed I am being. I'm going to take some time to consider everything and try to use the ample logic you have provided me with. I just have to place the picture of a depressed duckling over the irrational want to have an imprinted duckling. If I...

    Thanks for your advice. I know I should probably get another duckling..but I'm aiming for a pet duck and I wish to try with just one first. I figured that the mouth movement wasn't aggression. I just want to learn what the little duckling's body language means so as I do something I can see...

    I just bought a baby duckling. I have no idea the age, sex, or breed of it. I know, it was foolish to buy one that I know little to nothing about. What I would like is general advice on raising a duck. I know I should get more to keep it company but I would like to try to raise this one first...
