    When you buy domestic Mallards the hind claw on the right foot is removed from the hatchery to prove they are domestic. It should heal and do just fine. Good luck with him.

    How to sex call ducklings by plumage colour? “Needing advice”

    So happy that you got so many females!!!! They sure are cutie pies. I just love my two I hatched out even though they look more like their Father's Pastel coloring, they are both females for sure. Funny how the offspring can look so different.

    My all White large female Muscovy is my friendliest bird as she lets me pet her all the while I am stealing the eggs under her that she thinks she is going to hatch out. I just love her.

    New outside pen

    I used to have some pens that were unsecure and used Nite Guard lites as protection from the raccoons. They worked well for over three years so I trusted them, then one night a coon got my beautiful Wood Duck and my Khaki Campbell. That was when I declared war on them and spent quite a bit of...

    New outside pen

    Lucky you guys that you have land where they are safe. We have raccoons and hawks so mine don't have that option.

    New outside pen

    Thanks, I have heard that if they are not heavy ducks they can be on wire bottoms somewhat so they will probably be just fine. I have 13 small ones and 13 big ones.

    New outside pen

    Those are really nice pens, mine are in the big 8X8 pens that you see the chicks in during the chick sales at TSC. I have 7 of them combined with housing for my 26 ducks. They get very muddy even though I replace the sand quite often and have wood shavings in the housing. Does the wire...

    How to integrate late hatched ducklings with others.

    Once they are fully grown and you have lots of room for them all I think they will get along fine. Right now they probably feel like they are invaders going to hurt their babies since they don't recognize them as their own.

    The Quack Shack

    If you have a huge pen and places where they can get away from each other a bachelor flock might work. I never knew when I used to let my Mallard hatch out her babies that the hen is what determines the sex of the babies. She had 35 ducklings over the years and out of all of them 2 were hens...

    Can you tell what kind of duckling this is?

    You are most welcome.

    What sex are these?

    I think I see two male Khaki's and one female. Can you tell by their voices now? The dark rump ones are usually males is what I was going by.

    How to integrate late hatched ducklings with others.

    I am glad that you made that decision. I had two born in my house from my incubator 9 days apart and it took 5 days of separation and watching them constantly to put them together. They are best friends now and 2 months old. I wasn't sure at first if I was ever going to be able to do it.

    Can you tell what kind of duckling this is?

    It looks like quite a mixture to me. Possibly Black Sweddish with the yellow on chest, the black one might be Cayuga, the brown one Khaki Campbell, and not sure about the other two. Cute ducklings though.

    The Quack Shack

    What happened to me when I did that was my huge Muscovy drake tried to mate my Mallard drake so I ended up getting rid of both of them. I felt bad for the Mallard drake and could not stop the Muscovy from trying to mate him all day.

    What Breed Of Duck Should I Get?

    I ended up getting 7 of the pens from Tractor Supply like the ones they keep their chicks and ducks in during the spring. My husband and son were able to connect them all together. It's somewhat of a maze but they can go from one pen to the other with lots of shelters and hiding places. They...

    The Quack Shack

    My rapey drakes started in March here, they are still going strong too. They won't want to quit until around October or November and even then will still act out every once in a while, just not as bad. I am lucky they are all small so that my girls do not really get hurt by them. My Hens...
