We have a blue swede duck that has been disappearing into a neighboring field. She shows up about once a day to bath and eat dinner, then it's back to the field.
This has been going on for about 3 weeks. What do we need to prepare for the day she shows up with her ducklings?
I used to have trouble with them scratching the crumble all over the place, until I put a big rock in their food dish. Now my rooster perches on it to eat :)
