Ducks outside

[Sasaran mihai]

Today i brought my peekin ducks outside since they crude for it and they go after me but the thing is they started eating grass should i worry?

No worries, the wee ones need their greens. And bugs. I try to get my littles out on grass as soon as possible, and weather permitting. These are my baby Pekins and Silver Appleyards from last May when they were about 7-10 days old. If they had had a mom I wouldn't have worried as much about the weather. Second picture is a Dark Cornish hen with her two Narragansett turkey poults - if they got cold mom would just fluff up and settle on top of them, like a portable warming station.

Very cute littles you have there. As long as it's warm enough out there for them they should be fine.

I'm a bit jealous that your ducklings follow you and eat from your hand.
My ducklings are very skittish and run from me.

My ducklings are 4 weeks old now. Been trying to get them used to me for those 4 weeks. They still run away peeping their little heads off. My 5 year old ducks are skittish too. Maybe it's the breed.
