Hi!
I have three, 7(ish) week old Pekin ducks, and three 2 week old Pekin ducklings. They’ve been meeting through a repurposed dog kennel on really nice day, like today!
I have one hen that’s particularly interested with the babies, and won’t leave their “side” when they’re outside.
I won’t fully introduce them until the ducklings are a few weeks older. But I’m wondering when is the right age to introduce them? And what (roughly) should I expect for behavior? And what should I watch for?
Pictures of my feathered loves below. (Also picture of the hen that’s mothering the babies)
