My name is Caroline and I am a first time duck owner. I got ducks because I am allergic to chickens and chicken eggs. I have a lot of trouble trying to find duck eggs so I decided to take the plunge and get two ducklings so of course I have four! I have four Pekin but I do not know the sex yet, I believe they are only 4-5 weeks old although they are getting quite big.
The ducklings join my family which consists of a chocolate lab (Chunk), a setter mix (Darwin) and a cat (Megatron). Other than being curious at first, all the animals pretty much ignore the ducklings. I had the ducks outside in a kennel area one day when it was really nice out and the dogs stood guard over them. They never acted aggressive with them at all which I was very thankful for but I will still keep a close eye on them once they move outside permanently.

Glad you joined.
Isaac really knows ducks.
