Ducks flying

[faeryshimmer]

My 6 ducks are now testing out there wings. They have started wandering out a little farther into the yard but still stay pretty close to the coop. There's only one I'm completely sure that it's a peking but since they all came in a group I'm not sure of the rest. So now I'm not sure if some or all will fly away. I need to know what type they are and how to keep them at home

Do they have any cover out there? You may want to erect something so they can duck for cover in case of a flying predator. Most domestics can't fly far but there is always the exception to the rule. I do spot a Mallard though that one can fly. but hopefully she'll stick around since her flock is there. She looks like a Mallard but she also looks as large as your Swedish.

They're pen has a cover but I let them out when I let the goats out. I stay out with them then.

Good for you, they sure are pretty.

Thank you so much! They're great birds and even cats don't mind them
