Thank you! I'll get everything set up now!
Do you think I could buy some worms and put them throughout the yard so the ducks can wonder around and dig them up.
I have a small A framed house for them but it's not very big. Does the house have to be big or can it just be a small place to go to at...
Hi,
I'm soon going to purchase 4 pekin ducks and I have a yard about 5 x 8 m yard for them. What do I need to set up for them.
eg. a mini pond, do I need a water "trough" for them or will they drink from the pond? Do they need a food bucket with food in it all the time or do I scatter the food...
Hey!
I would really like to hatch my own pekins too and I'm starting off with four ducks as well! I would only really like females because if I get a drake I will probably need more females but you can't really controll that!

I've been talking to a few people and they have been saying that because the mallards are so small they may be hurt by the Pekins.
Thanks
Ok, Thanks so much!
You are so helpful!!! :)
So (just to clarify) I should get 4 female ducks!
Do you think it would be a bad idea to get 2 (female ) pekins and 2 (female) mallards because of the size difference or should I just stick with 4 pekins and dont worry about the mallards. Would it be...
Hey!
I've recently decided to get some ducks and I'm going to get a mix of Mallard ducks and Pekin ducks!
(I've heard they get along!) I only wanted 4 ducks (2 mallard and 2 Pekin) but I'm not sure if I need more! I don't want heaps of ducks because (as you know) they are friendly and gain...
