They can guard an alarm but sure can't do much to protect from a predator with teeth.

Well don't get comfortable with thinking your ducks are going to be perfectly fine at 1 month of from flying predators because I'm here to tell you they are NOT! I don't know what else to say except they are never going to be safe from flying predators no matter how old they are!I am living in Le Bic (Quebec, Canada). Most predators are wolves, stoats, weasels, racoons. I let my ducks outside when they are 1 month old, so I usually don't have problems with flying predators. Don't have other animals for now except poultry.
it's like a weasel type thing.What’s a stoat?
Well, they do eat ticks...but so do ducks and chickens...and they’re a lot cuterThat’s all they can do is sound off they get eaten too!
I think guineas are such cool birds. They don't look real to me. I've got 2 border collies that are great with the ducks except one of them won't stop eating the duck poop so I can't leave her in with them. Nasty little eater!Well I have a blue heeler, rooster , guineas goats and cats and I just only let my poultry out when the goats are out. The blue heeler guards the outside of the pens while the goats are large and discourage any flying predators. I also have the guineas to warm of trouble and a fake owl that I move daily on my fence. We considered a donkey but were told that they will kill dogs
