Thank you, sorry I saw the picture after I posted...

Having chicks and ducklings together isn't ideal because the ducklings like to play in their water and can cause the chicks to get wet and chill. Plus ducklings need to be able to dunk their heads to keep their nares and eyes clean and chicks can drown if the water is too deep. I'll get you a pic of a pretty good water bowl for ducklings.

my 1 duck just turned approx.11 mos old (had since 3 months old) and is NOW starting to run to my hand when I have a treat. Runs after me to touch me when I'm in their pen. But no way will he let me touch him! His name is Sharon-shes-a-man because as you can tell, we thought it was a girl at first lol. He's a black Cayuga. Kanye is a call duck. approx. 8 mos old, doesn't come near me either but, easier to catch!
