Duckling Introductions not going well

[WannaBeHillBilly]

@WannaBeHillBilly oh your ducks are so beautiful! I hope to have a success story like that!
First thing in the morning when I bring the mallards out and let the campbells out of their house is the worst. The ladies start raising the alarm and charging the dog kennel. Then they all quiet down and go about their business. In the afternoon every once in awhile the campbells will go check out the mallards and try to grab them.
I did let them all out together yesterday as they literally have an acre of space to go but the mallards were just bombarded by the Campbell ladies. And I felt bad. They shooed them away from the flock and the mallards started racing away. So I had to go round them up and bring them back to the kennel.
I haven’t tried that since!

Well Thank You! - I love when Nona Duck does that thing with turning her feet inwards, like a shy teenager and then calmly asks for some treats. - Not like Katharina Duck who is just charging at me turning her head sideways and quacking like i just stole her duckling and ate it…
Just give them some time. Another good tactic is to feed them treats they both like together but separated. I did that in March: One handful of meal-worms inside the duck(ling) house, the next handful outside so both parties had fun. - Except Katharina who was jealous and wanted to have the worms in the the house because they were tastier (they weren't!), so she tried to climb up the hardware cloth, which of course she can't and ended up on her back, which made her even more furious. In the end i had to throw her into the duck-pool with ice cold snowy water. And she still has a problem with "Erpelchen" the new drake… https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...lings-are-here.1289838/page-176#post-21510932
