i have 2 ducks, one khaki campbell and a rouen/mallard [its hard to tell the difference between those breeds and it was labeled as assorted when i got it so that didnt help.] i believe they were both the same age or very close when i got them, because they were the exact same size. the khaki is growing to be bigger than the other and im not sure if thats due to the breed or something else but it doesnt need the heat lamp anymore, or at least not at the temperature it is. it pants and shows discomfort when its on, so i turned it off. theyre both gettung feathers so i assume they wont need it at all soon but the mallard/rouen doesnt pant and often stays in the light. so what do i do? the khaki campbell doesnt want it anymore but the mallard/rouen still enjoys the heat. i cant seperate them because they are very close to eachother and constantly cry when yhe other isnt there
Provide them with a brooder large enough that they have the ability to get away from the heat lamp if they desire to do so.
