Scared duck?

When I've lost ducks the others acted different for a few days. Sometimes they'll go back to normal and sometimes they'll always be a little different. We lost a lot of ducks within a few weeks months ago, and mine still act different. Not scared anymore, but different.
Im sorry for your losses, but Im happy that theyre ok, and they made it through those hard weeks. They are very brave ducks :)
 
I’d get out there as soon as you can tomorrow and finish cleaning up.
Yup, thats what I will be doing as soon as I can. I am also considering the posibility of him hiding from predators. Here were I live, the altitude is very high, and so many predators dont come. However, I have seen Condors and large birds a couple years ago once. Hopefully its not that, howeveer, I am happy that he pulled thorugh and thats what matters in the end. Soon, he will have a premanent new companion. Ill see how that goes.
 
How's everything going today?
Today, he still stayed under the cypres tree. He seems like he lost some apetite in his normal food, though, I have fed him quite a lot these recent days; more that
i normally do. Now, theyre favourite treat was always peas, and he hasnt tasted those is a while. I gave some to him today, and he ate with a big apetite. So Im happy to see that he seems happy with the peas. He is also amused with the mirror which I brought out again today. He still however, wont leave the area, though hes coming out more often. Overall, I'm seeing improvement, and he doesnt seem so scared anymore. Thanks for asking :)

When you can and weather permits bring your duckling out to visit, the more they are around each the easier it will be when she is old enough to be outside with him all the time. With supervision of course. Happy to hear your seeing improvement in his appetite and enjoying the mirror.

Ok, Ill make sure to do that. I dont think shell be ready to sleep outside until a couple months have passed due to the frigid temperatures here were I live at noght. However, I will make sure to swlowly introduce them. Ill post about when they meet as much as I can. :)
 
Well, I have some pics of the little duckling, and the bigger duck individually, however not a picture of them together. Ill try to get one tomorrow :)
