@Duckfarmer1
I'm happy everyone is doing good today..
All my Ducks leave on Monday. I'm so relieved and a little sad too.
The empty pen will be used for Tori when she comes. Perfect for her to be introduced..

I'm getting excited to get Tori and now this will be education on how I introduce them too. Could be great or a nightmare? Possibly she comes next week once my Ducks are sold and the pen is cleaned really good and set up.

Ok, word of advice on introductions...do it on neutral space...not in pens. Let them approach each other, but be more protective of Tori, so they know she’s there to stay. There will be head butting. That’s normal. She will very quickly realize who’s the highest in the pecking order and stick to that one like glue!! My new Honey...realized Busty is top dog, and Stormy is a wild one...unpredictable. Honey stays by Busty...and it really only took a few, supervised intros to get them all to be friends. Now all 8 goats..,which 5 are kids, are living in the same barn. I was concerned, due to moms protecting the kids...but it hasn’t been bad at all.The kids learn quick, and Tori will too. Hopefully, this will give Fancy the attention she desires, and she won’t be so needy. My two new goats used to cry all day because they were in quarantine and were allowed with the herd yet. Now they are all together and aren’t near as needy as they were. It’s nice. And, yes, this is great having a goat thread on here, because it gives us all a chance to chat about our lives, and learn, and help the new people, just as we were, not so long ago!! My oh my, goats are worth the effort!! Here’s a few pictures...just for the cute factor. misty likes to stand on my back...while I’m standing up!!

Thanks for the information. I am going to introduce them out in the yard first. Tori and Bo will be locked up in the other pen though for a few days before I keep everyone together.
Yes, I said Bo..He is coming with Tori..
