Hatching
I have a couple different questions, but feel free to add any input you have. I had a flock of 6 ducks, all were 6 weeks. Last night something got into their outdoor pen. Question 1: the hardware cloth was ripped out in a straight line and it wasn’t along a seam either, does anyone know what type of animal could do this? I always read that hardware cloth was predator proof. Two ducks were dead in the pen and another one was alive and well in the coop. We don’t know where the other three are, but we saw some duck foot prints on the beach, so we are keeping our hopes up. Question 2: Are there ways to find ducks that have run away? We’re not really sure wear to look but have been checking in the bushes in shrubs; should we play mallard call sounds or something?
Question 3: if we cannot find the other three, what should we do with the last duck? Are there ways to comfort him? (Stuffed animal?)
thank you
