I'm guessing 3 weeks. We got them two weeks ago today.Our ducks were a bit skittish when we got them as well. How old are your little ducks?

I don't think most ducks and a lot of chickens like being hugged. But, I bet you can get them to take treats from your hand.

That's a good age. I find that giving treats can win anyone's heart.
Try offering them treats by hand. You have a great start to handling them frequently. Let them get used to your voice. Let them know that when they hear your voice, that you are safe and they find you comforting.
