A day with the ducks in the yard including conversations with Kozzy, a song by O'Malley, Flapper chasing Petunia, hugs from Flapper and Georgie hogging all the worms.
@systemsT Yes. He's on the very front of the video too. That's Kozmo Kirby. He died of a seminoma tumor. Pekin-scovy hybrids are prone to cancers. Since muscovies are the only ducks not descended from mallards, I think the hybrids have some pretty bad genetics. He was a sweetheart.
Hello, how do you get your ducks to not be so scared of you? Your Pekin basically attacks you which is extremely cute. Tips on showing them you're their friend?
@TheFreezingM00N Approach them slowly and not from above. Get down to their level with treats and get a routine in place. If you sit outside on the ground each day quietly with treats at the same time, they will learn the routine and learn that you are safe. If you reach for them and try to grab them, they'll remember and not trust you. Good luck.
