Hi Everybody!
Recantly my boyfriend brought me a duckling I have allways wanted one for many years, I have read bits and bob´s one the internet about owning a duck and it said that ducks now are very popular domestic pets. We live on a 4 story flat but have a very big roof terrace for her.
Im not sure how old she is but she is at the stage that her feathers are changing??
I love her dearly and can watch her all day, she really has a great caracter, the only thin is i am finding some problems and have some questions. So if any one has advise i would be so greatfull!
So these are my problems;
1- The POO! I always read that Ducks do poo and that when they sleep if you only have one duck give them a soft blanket and maybee a teddy as a companion. We have a dog house that she sleeps in and i thought you needed to lock her in at night but when we wake up she has poo all over her bed and teddy.
Is this something she will grow out of? Do they learn to poo in one area? Or should i not be locking her away at night time?
2- She is a female and i was just wondering do they always lay eggs? even without a male?
And any other advise any one has is truely welcome!
P.S - Her name is De De
