I have 2 indian runner ducklings and a mallard duckling and they are about 5 weeks old,I put them in our chicken tractor a couple days ago and earlier I put a cement mixing tray in there with water and a big rock to get in an out. Anyway they like to get low to the ground and run fast and zig zag and run in and out of the box and water and they'll be getting a drink and than all of a sudden they'll just run around than go on with dabbling through the grass or water haha I think it's real cute...are they playing like kittens or puppies would? I know about everything about chickens and raised them for about 5 years now but I got the indian runner ducklings about 4 weeks ago and hatched the mallard in are incubator and these are my first ducks ever and learned a lot of breeds and about them...but anyway I was just wondering if they are playing or what thanks!
