@Lauraduck @New duck mommy 2021 Thanks ya'll for the replies. Yes the drakes are in drake jail, but we did let them out for about 30 mins for 2 nights in a row so they could get a good dunk in the pond, and they all went right for the 2 white ducks. So that would make sense since I've noticed...

Hello, Fairly new duck owner here. I acquired 5 adult females about 6 weeks ago. They did not come from the best conditions, it was overcrowded with a tiny/muddy swimming hole. They are all much thinner than the 3 drakes and 1 hen I raised, but over the past month the 2 black swedish and the 1...
