I have owls out to deter the hawks. Should I be moving them daily to different places around 3 acres or just around the pond area where the ducks spend their time? I know the hawks will catch on if not moved -but am I moving them to close to previous location??
I had 2 drakes, one was just killed by a hawk, I’m getting a new duck, so the remaining duck is not alone. Should I get a duckling or an adult duck? Will an adult duck fall into place with my duck & me? I’m not sure which is best- a duckling or adult duck- my duck is my pet & I interact with him...
I have 3 drakes that are adults & a 9 week duckling, the duckling has been staying with them at night separated, until 2 nights ago and that is going well. When do I need to let the duckling out to free range with the others? He had his own pin outside now.
When should I start letting him stay the night with the other 3 ducks? I know to keep them separated for a bit, but when should I start this & when is he ok to go with them during the day? They free range & go up at night.
I had to get 2 ducks, they are now 1 yr old, bc I had 2 ducks & 1 died. So the new 2 ducks got along & now the 2 new ducks are chasing off Daisy, the original duck. They chase him into a corner in the pin & chase him off in the pond & everywhere- it’s been going on about a month. Will they work...
I lost a duck ‘ that left me with one. I got 2 ducklings, now 7 weeks old. The ducklings are getting in the pond & staying there. I cannot get them out at night- they stay out all night. They will not follow the older duck to the bed at night. They will eat of my hand, but will not cone to me...
I have 2 ducks, one was taken by a hawk. Is it ok to get new baby ducklings to raise with the remaining duck? Is it ok for her to be without another duck for 5 weeks?
