Hi all,
We have two ADORABLE week old ducklings we hatched ourselves. These little guys have imprinted on us and cry constantly if weare not in view. At night they are crying constantly since the broader is in our living room. Does anyone have any tips on how to make them more independant, or what we can do to reduce their anxiety while we sleep? I'd movie the broader into our bedroom, but I don't think I'd sleep a wink with all of the peeping and the light of the heat lamp. I hate to think they are stressed out when we are away, but it sounds like the fire alarm is going off all night, bless.their hearts. Help!
Also, this may be for another thread, but eventually they silliness to integrate with our flock of 9 mixed breed/sex ducks. Any tips on what age to start introducing them, and how to go about it. We live in the frozen north, so I anticipate these guys will probably b indoors for the next 2mo.
Thanks!
Donna
