Excited wasn't an emotion I had thought of! There wasn't anything out of the ordinary I could see, but I'll have to check out the area tomorrow and keep that in mind. They definitely aren't acting predator level scared. We had a huge rain storm last night and the weather got colder and windy as...

Im so sorry I thought I had made the link public! I'll try to fix that right now. Thank you for letting me know

I'm wondering if any more experienced duck folk could tell me what these guys are doing? This is a google drive link to the video (It wouldn't upload it here, sorry) [video link] From my perspective it seems like they're anxious and frantically looking in multiple directions back and forth...

Last update for a bit (hopefully 🤞) Now that the sudden cold snap has passed, they're out in the sunshine enjoying the warm weather and having baths in their jail partitions (lol) The two I'm keeping together still squabble every so often, but they're not hurting each other very badly and I...

That's on my list once I get the bigger things sorted! To try and avoid that problem in the meantime, I switched up the rooming arrangements tonight; I put the 2 buddies that pick fights with the big duck in the enclosed part of the coop, and so far it looks like the big duck and the more...

Thank you. This comment really made me feel a little better... I hope they go back to their normal soon. I love my boys so much, it's tough seeing them act out like this for the first time... I'm sure I'll be able to handle it better once we get a new routine going. It'd be easier if the weather...

Okay, little update for the next day: I figured out a seperation system with chicken wire for their outdoor area for during the day. I have 2 isolated in their own sections, and the other 2 together for now. They're still managing to fight through the fencing a bit which is annoying, but not as...

Thanks for the reply! I have a foldable wire puppy pen I tried to utilize in their coop for the night, but it looks like they can still get their heads through the gaps and nip each other 🙄 at least the fence stops them from going too crazy... I'll have more time tomorrow to work on stuff...

Its my first spring (getting close to 1 year mark having my ducks) and I have 4 sibling runner drakes. They've done well together all year (they'll be 1 year in march or may) but now its gotten warmer in one day and they all switched up and are fighting hard together. The most submissive one...

No, I do not! I hadn't even considered this to be honest. That's a great idea and I can make another food area today when I get home. I only have 4 ducks, so I hadn't considered needing another, but it might help.

This morning I noticed my one boy Runner's chest was looking different than normally and more obviously concave at the top. I'm still so new to owning ducks or birds in general, so sorry if this is a bit of a silly question. I kept an eye on him and he's eating and acting normal, but is the way...

Thanks so much for the reply! I'll definitely keep an eye on them to make sure that doesn't happen. He's not even a year old yet, so I guess only time will tell.

Me too haha The four of them all have different feet colors and nails, but his legs are the most multicolour so the texture stands out a lot

Yeah, he's my pretty boy of the bunch haha! Thank you. So far the opinion seems like he's all ok.

Hi! It's been a while since I've been in here, and I was curious for people's opinions of my boy's nails. Without looking closely they seem fine (and honestly, my initial instinct is that they are) but I'm new to having ducks so I want to have other other people's opinions. I never really...

Update on this! I've found them a home through a friend, so im no longer on the look out. Thanks if you see this!

Hello! I'm in Ontario just a little north of the GTA and looking for a new home for 2 hens (a chocolate Runner and little white duck). I've posted my own thread with more info here 😄 if anyone is interested or knows someone who might be please send me a message! Thanks!

Thanks so much for linking this thread! I'll hop on there as well 😁

Hello!! I've been lurking on here for quite a few months while I've been caring for my first ever ducks, now I've finally made an account! I recived 6 baby ducklings in the spring, and now that they're almost all grown up I've found out I have 2 girls and 4 boys 😅 I decided to keep the boys...
