Hi everybody I have recently bought 3 khaki Campbell (3 weeks old) and 3 austrolope hens (9 weeks old)
They are still getting used to me so I have kept them
In their coup/run and hand feed them a little every night. My questions are regarding egg laying and "herding".
Should I keep them in their coup/run until they start laying so they know where to lay or should I let them start free ranging earlier?
Also how do I get the ducks back to the coup at night. From what I've read ducks can be stubborn and not cooperate.
Thank you
