i would spend as much time with/being near them as you can when they are little. I’ve found it helps form lasting bonds with them as they get older. When my ducks were babies I kept the brooder in the living room at table height so they saw me everyday. I also kept a cup of mealworms nearby so that when I walked past them I’d give them a treat.I’m not sure why, but one of my week old ducklings did the same thing when I picked him up to take a photo. It broke my heart that he was so scared of me. What should I do?
Best advice is to be patient with them. They’ll come around.
