    Duck pen

    My ducks have a nice pen that they stay in to sleep, and they are in there about half the day when I'm not around (but when I am home they free range). But they ripped out all the grass in their pen, so right now it is all mud, and no grass at all. Should I put pine shaving all over the mud or...

    Duck lays down while I pet her

    Every time I go to pet my duck it lays it's whole body on the ground (head and neck too) and it will just sit there and I will keep petting it and then it quacks pretty quite. What does that mean when she does that?

    What do you guys do about a very loud duck?

    My duck recently has been very loud quacking, she usually isn't this bad, but is there any way that I could do something to make her quieter? Like more free range time or toys/bells, or a larger pool???

    Abandoned baby duck

    And also I have it so my ducks can't have any contact with the baby duckling they can only hear but they can't touch it at all, so I made sure they wouldn't get any diseases the baby might have had

    Abandoned baby duck

    Thank you! I will look into the wildlife! And is there anyway I could keep it? Like a way to show it is domesticated or is that not possible?

    Abandoned baby duck!!

    My friends found a baby duckling in the middle of the road w/o any mom or other siblings, just all by itself (yes they walked around the area to try and find the mom). And they knew I had ducks and that I can take care of it. So now I have it, what should I feed it (this little thing can't be...

    My duck likes to be held on its back?!

    My new duck is a mallard. And when I hold it normally (like how you hold a dog or cat), it goes nuts to try and get away from you and outta your arms. But the second you flip it over and hold it on its back like a baby, it calms right down and would lay there in your arms for hours, if she...

    Introducing ducks!

    I just bought a mallard duck for my Pekin and the mallard is smaller than the Pekin and my Pekin keeps kinda pecking at her feathers and feet, but I truly don't think she is trying to be mean about it, I have had theses two together for about 15 minutes and the mallard is already following the...

    Introducing ducks!

    Well right now there is but the other one just has to grow and they should end up being relatively the same size

    Introducing ducks!

    Is it normal for them to do that? Update: they are getting better and better; the pecks aren't even happening, but why did she do that in the beginning?

    Trying to find ducks!

    Okay so I looked on efowl, and I have one picked out, but right now I have 1 duck because the other one just got attacked by a coyote Monday morning. But on efowl I would get them as ducklings and they would need a heat lamp and to be inside until they are ready to go outside. And my other adult...
