When Can I remove my ducklings from my hen?

[mrhatler]

One of my chickens decided to hatch some adorable ducklings, but we want them to be friendlier than our other ducks.
They just come for food and when you try to touch them they run. I feel so used lol.
They are about 2 weeks old right now and we have them in the house, living room rather said.
Thank you

You have mama hen and ducklings inside? You can take mama hen out with the rest of the birds anytime she eventually get over not being with her babies.

Thank you. we have been putting both in a run outside but when I separate them they cry, break my heart but they will be together later again. I know she got cabin fever, her stay at home order is driving her nutty lol she is always like "open this darn cage already"

I know it’s not easy taking them away so I don’t.
