I wish the same its getting much colder at night now as the nights draw in i must say they cant wait to get inside and settle down for the night in the warmth of there duck room. :) they are as i speak {8.41pm} all lined up in there runs with fresh wood savings and clean water full tummys all heads tucked under wing sound asleep. :)
We get wild ducks ((NZ native and mallard hybrids mainly) and they can be so tame considering. Your videos just are so full of love and care and respect.
Mamanman Steve, I didn't watched a video of your in like 5 months I think, you keep surprising me with how much love you're giving to your pets, you truly fill my heart and I wish you and your pets the best ! Lots of love from The Netherlands.
know what my ducks are craziest about? dry dog food! they like to get into the dog's food and she likes to get into theirs. a friend feeds hundreds of birds with dry cat food - none of it gets left, unlike different types of seed in the mixes.
I would love it if you did a video about how you keep that massive pond clean, I can imagine you have filters and all that but how do you know when to change them or change out the water and all that.
Hi Thank you for the nice comments. :~) No because i clean up the poop straight away and if it has dried before i see it i have a scraper to pick it up. and finaly it is a laminate floor and i use a mob bucket of hot water with pine disinfectant in it and mop the floor once a week so it stays very clean.This is why i can kneel down in my work clothes with no fear of getting them dirty.:)
There you go nearly 4 years have passed and he is still here having fun. :~) The other vid starring Em is "Im Home" this is Em doing what he knows best :~)
Thank you the two ducks in this vid have moved on I gave them to a very good friend of mine who gave me Abbey {white female} and Sophie {Brown female} as they moved house a year ago and had to give up there flock at the time I have helped them start up again. So with fresh females and my males they can start up again. I was sad to see them go but it was for the best I recon. :~)
Hi yes it is protein you find it in meal worms snail slugs worms anything with meat in it. {that's why dogs poop stinks so bad} if you keep them on grass corn wheat maize and layer pellets. And let them have meal worms as a treat there poop don't stink so bad. :~)
i have 3 ducks and had them inside when they were young then moved them outside when they got bigger. would of kept them inside longer but when they got older they're poop smelled to bad to keep them inside. we used to let them roam around and follow us n watch tv with us but when they kept pooping more and bigger we couldn't anymore. curious if u feed ur ducks a certain diet that helps keep them from having smelly poop. some kind of diet that makes they're smell at least not as strong oder?
What part of the world are you from ? If from the uk I get them from the local pet store that sells them in 1 kilo bags instead of the 1 kilo plastic tubs as it save a few pounds. :~)
*Update* I have kept Max the two grey ones I gave to my friend who gave me Sophie and Abbey they were never intended to stay. they were bred for a duck farm but they gave up the business so I kept them until I could find a good home. I did and they are well looked after and are about to get some girls of there own very soon. :)
Lol when i was a kid i had 3 wonderfull ducklings and took them at my grandparents farm so they can grow in a healthy envyronment.They were following me everywhere ahah, and when they were around to explore in the vegetation, just a call and they were coming rushing even from far far away ahah. I remember i loved to feed them with earth worms, everytime i was visiting my grandparents they knew they would have a feast :D But the funny/scary thing is when they grew older and they saw for the first time one of the duck di*k they believed it was an earth worm and eat that thing ahaha. However from that 3 ducks i bring to my grandparents years later they had like 20-30 ducks ahahha
They sure are they go nuts when i get home from work and see me for the first time :)
I love the way you speak to them. They are all so adorable.
Thats because they are my little ones :)
Thank you for the very nice comments I have other vid nearly complete so look out for it.
mine to they squabble over one worm its so funny to watch :~)

+Abbey Mann +Now that is good materiel ok will do :)
I agree :~)

I love how chatty ducks are! What do you suppose all the quacking is about?
Best way to be because they really do make good pets :~)
okay i will take a look :3.
i forgot to subscribe but now i did :D
They sure are :) thank you
It's internet slang for the sound of animals eating. It's associated with adorableness. :3
"They have a night light, is that sad or what?" Haha!!
they are great pets loyal and friendly like a dog if trained from a duckling
But golly , aren 't they the happiest ducks.
And thank you for the nice comments :)
You did have a lot of help digging that trench. (Grin)
my ducks love meal worms too!!

Such sweet babies :)
But how do you keep the floor clean? Wouldn't their droppings fill the cracks even if you wipe the floor?
My ducks love the worms from my garden!!! :)
I have a few ideas in mind thank you for your nice comments :)
I must try the meal worms for my ducks. They love steel cut oats, lettuce, grubs. But they forage for the grubs and tear up the lawn.
My duck loves mealworms. Everyone who has a duck should know this.
oh yes they have plenty :) a good balanced diet.
There you go nearly 4 years have passed and he is still here having fun. :~)
The other vid starring Em is "Im Home" this is Em doing what he knows best :~)
I thought this was going to be a song!
"They have a nightlight... is that sad or what?!" hahahahahahaha
