I lost a few of my year old females this week. I have one female left and two drakes yikes… I separated her from them and put her in with my 6 week olds. One friendly drake, and a sassy female. she’s still quite a bit bigger than these little ducks. She lost her best friend (another hen) and is still upset.
The young drake is keeping her away from the water and she’s keeping to herself but seems upset. It’s the first day these guys are together outside- they’ve been in a smaller pen together. No one seems to be aggressive- they weren’t in the smaller pen. They are avoiding each other and staying in separate areas of the pen. Will the 3 warm up to each other? I’m hoping to have these three as a breeding trio eventually. Please help. The baby ducks are in the front. The young drake and female were raised together.
