Giving Away Ducklings?

[Soos-Quacken]

Greetings,

Our runner duck recently hatched ducklings. Unfortunately we do not have the capacity to house them long term. We have found a buyer, but they are going to take all of them. I’m afraid that this will traumatize the mother. So, is there anything I can do for her, or will she be fine if we just take all of them? Thanks!

She'll be fine after about a day or so. She may look around for them for a bit afterwards but they're used to loosing some ducklings so I don't think it would be traumatizing for her.
Would you send some pictures of them before they're sold please?

Of course!

She'll probably be quacking non-stop for a day or two after they are gone, but after that, she should be back to normal.

Can't she keep one?
