Do Ducks Have Night Vision???

[Crazy Maizie]

My runner ducks don't have good night vision - like others, if I miss the dusk and put them away a bit too late, they cower in the corner of their duck house and don't even come out for their bedtime peas!!

Awe.

My ducks seem terrified of a bright flashlight but stay near to the porch light at night, and then I chase them in the duck house.

Due to this fear, a lot of people use flashlights to herd their ducks into their coop at night. It works similar to using a stick.
