My ducklings turned 1 month old last Friday.
I am thinking that I have 1 female so far out of my 4 ducklings. She is smaller and the first to quack. And a real squealer! She has cut my hands and arms trying to get away from me every time I go to pick her up and she bites; its starting to hurt now that their bills are getting stronger.
So I need some advice about her. Is she going to get more friendly or are females this way?
I've been holding them every day 4-5 times/day since they were born. The others are used to me, no fighting or biting.
But when she gets worked up they all do then.
Frustrated New Duck Mommy!
