RE: Getting our first animals...FINALLY

in #chickens7 years ago

I GET IT NOW.

They do act like a little family! We just have the two ducks (they are temporarily in the chicken tractor until Andrew finishes a duck house for them). The chickens go in to roost at sundown, but the ducks haven't figured out how to follow them up the ramp. They panic and peep-quack until we come in the tractor, and they run to Andrew so he can put them in the coop. It's adorable/sad/adorable.

Sort:  

haha ours aren't big fans of us despite having 6 of them since they were one week old. Ours will probably live with our chickens when we get chickens, still thinking the duck/chicken living arrangements through. I did read ducks don't like ramps

Yeah, we're figuring as much. The shared space with the chickens is temporary until we get their much more duck-friendly accommodations finished.
