Mallard ducks

I am a new mom of 5 mallard ducks. They are almost 2 weeks old. This is my first time doing this and I was looking for some advice on how to proceed

Thank you. I am trying to get some helpful hints on releasing them at 6 weeks

You should contact a local rescue organization. Your local animal control will also likely know who to contact. They will know if you are allowed to release them and what needs to be done so they can be released, if your local area allows it. Wild animals need to be reared with minimal human contact.

Best of luck. Hopefully you are able to find the info you need.

I would also contact an animal expert in your area whether it is animal control or a rehab.
Unfortunately, if you provide everything, they won’t survive in the wild when you release them.
