Hi,
Similar question: I am interested in hatching a few ducklings under one of my hens (if and when they go broody). But I have a flock of 14 hens--how will the other hens treat the little ducklings once they've hatched? And I'd like to move the ducklings in with the ducks (four ducks, one drake). How would the ducks treat new little ducklings they've never seen before?? I don't like trauma!!
