Hi to all you duck enthusiasts!!!
I am new to this forum and just looking for a little advice from you experts. I have already a group of hens in my back garden and am wanting to release my dream of getting 2 ducks. However, whilst keeping hens has been relatively straight forward so far, I understand that ducks needs are different and want to do this only if it can be done properly. So here are a few questions for you!
1) can ducks and hens be kept in a run together?
2) do ducks need their own coops?
3) how often do smallish plastic ponds need changing? what about pumped ponds?
4) any information on health, feed, run maintenance, breeds all welcome!
