    Advice on Swedish ducks

    I have two Black Swedish ducks. I let them out with my other ducks but in the evening I can’t get them back in. My other ducks go in their coop no problem but these two run all over and are very hard to catch. What can I do to get them in their coop? They are very fast!

    I was wondering at what age can ducklings go outside to play and for how long? Also do you let them free roam or put them in a pen? As of right now in West Virginia it’s been chilly so we have been letting them free roam in the house.
