    Getting Ducks to like humans

    I have one mallard of unknown gender and 3 Welsh harlequins, all are supposed to be female. How do I get these ducks to be more friendly? I’ve had the mallard since it was 2 days old and I got the WH 2 days ago at 6-7 weeks old. I want them to know I’m friendly. Thanks.

    Update: I just got home from a fishing trip (not very successful except for some bluegill) at 1 AM and my mom told me the mallards were in the front yard , which is about 50 yards from the backyard, and there was only one. I can’t tell which one is here because it’s 1 am but I believe it’s the...

    All of the new Welsh Harlequins are females and it looks like one of the mallards are, which is 4 females to one drake.

    The new WH are all hens, and the mallards look like one drake and one hen. I can’t tell for sure though, they haven’t gotten their feathers or voices yet. Thanks for the advice.

    I just got new Welsh Harlequins added to my flock of 2 mallards. Both are the same age, born the week of Mother’s Day. My mallards chase around the WH with their bills open, is this normal? Thanks
