Two New Ducks

[duckking]

Hay, we are getting two new mallard ducks tomorrow

. we already have a 9 year old rouen and a 9 year old mallard. Will the three day old mallards be ok with my nine day old ducks?

I am no duck expert, but I would think that all the ducklings will be fine together. Still I would keep an eye on them for the first couple of hours, and make sure that nobody is getting thumped on.

I wish I had another Mallard to keep my mallard company... bit old runners keep running away from her.

Put them in a brooder or small pen with the nine day olds till they get to a good size, I had a lot of trouble a few years back when my cayuga drake decided to get jealous and start draggin them under water. It wasn't a good experience for anybody. Luckily i was not 2 feet from them and was able to scare off the drake. Everyone was fine, but scared out of there down.

But the ducklings should all get along fine. Before you know it they will all catch up to each other and be big duckies.
