Very happy to hear Diva is okay! Good job raising her to be so friendly

Congratz!!! I am very excited for you! I remember when my two pekins arrived, now they are massive, . I am getting seven chicks on June 8th, so I am excited for that too. Hope you have fun with your new babies!

If you have the hens and drakes mixed i agree. I have two drakes, and they are friendly and not too much trouble. But I do agree, if you mix the genders things do get more complicated. I just got the drakes because they have a quieter quack ... but I would like to expand and get some girls for...

Hey guys, I have a quick question. To train the ducks to not bite when they get older should I just ignore their bites or is there something I should do? I ignored my chicks, and they are fine, don't know if it's the same with ducks. Thanks :)

Just received the call from the post office! About to head down there :)

Are all of their ducky poos watery because I know with my chickens each one has different water levels in their poo.

I'll make sure to post pics. Hopefully they arrive ok. They are set to arrive by Christmas Eve, so they will be Christmas ducks, lol

Wow, I didn't know anything could be more cautious than chickens ;).

Hi guys! I will be receiving 2 pekin ducks by Wednesday. These will be my first ducks, but I have chickens. Any tips from experienced duck owners how to raise them to be friendly, basically any advice on raising ducks will be appreciated. Thanks! :)
