    landscaping question for ducks

    Well I USED to have a perennial garden with a pretty pond plants and such....then the ducks came...it is mostly gone now. Shrubs are good, evergreens. I have well established "roadside" daylillies that are holding up fine and ivy (but nothing ever seems to kill that, it will take over the world...

    has anyone actually had a problem with sawdust? (Shavings, oops)

    It is actually cheaper to buy those disposable bed sheets from Wallgreens and cut them to the size you want. They hold more water and often they are on sale or buy one get one free packages.

    Neighbor said she wants to take Daisy :/

    I can't believe the original owner would leave a duck like that without knowing for sure how well she will be cared for. At least the other neighbor means well, thinking he is helping the duck, it is what I would have done before I knew better.

    Need some advice before I get another duck...

    I am not sure how to do that, all three are in the backyard now free range. It is winter so they are sticking to my small pond and a couple of shelters I made for them to get out of the wind. When the couple eat and drink and get out of the way, then the rescue ducks takes her turn.

    Sooo envious of you guys with cold weather....

    How about we house swap during my spring break? You can have all fun you want with the snow and I can enjoy the sun and warm weather. Plus we already know how to take care of the ducks.... I only have only 3 to deal with (and a household of other pets). How about it?

    Is it normal for ducks to not eat so much during the winter?

    They stopped laying around November when it got cold. But a month before the snow, they were eating TONS of grain and now they don't eat much at all. I just wonder if this is some sort of natural cycle. I would think they would eat more to stay warm, so it goes against my logic. So I...

    Is it normal for ducks to not eat so much during the winter?

    This is the 2nd year I have had a pair of rouens and now a rescue duck. The still love getting the greens every day but I noticed they don't eat much of their feed during the winter. Do they go into some kind of hibernation mode? I live in Northern Indiana, so it is cold.

    A lonely duckling

    I gave my rescue duck a small beanie baby to be with. Sounds funny, but now that it is fully grown and completely free range, she still hangs around her "stuffy" by the pond. I bought a bunch at Goodwill and alternated them while the others were washed.

    do ducks eat slugs?

    One of the reasons I wanted ducks was for pest control and natural fertilizer for my garden, but what I didn't realizes is that I wouldn't have a garden to worry about either, because they ducks will eat the garden along with the pests. If I had more property I could probably separate part off...
