    I have a female pekin and a female mallard. I joined in order to communicate with other duck owners to learn from them as I've never owned ducks before. With the situation I'm in, I'm just hoping to get some guidance and answers.

    Introducing chicks to a flock of one

    We have a single hen left from our flock of six we started 5 years ago. We have 9 chicks that are about 4 weeks old and they’re getting a little cramped in their brooder. Any advice on introducing them into the adult flock of one? Or more realistically, introducing our older hen to them?
