Introduction
During the first few weeks after birth, ducklings are so adorable that people can't stop staring at them. They don't do much at first, other than eat, sleep, and poop, just like human infants.
As they grow older, their feathers begin to appear, and they no longer resemble the adorable darlings who first appeared on the scene. They grow very quickly, and it is only a matter of weeks before they require larger housing.
A duck is too delicate to be tossed around like a toy. They cannot be ignored simply because you do not want to spend time with them. If that is the case, don't get one.
They cannot be released into the wild to roam freely. Domestic ducks have been raised in captivity for a long time. As a result, they are unable to fly because their legs are insufficiently strong.
When there isn't enough food for the winter, they can't fly anywhere. They will perish if they do not have someone to look after them. Some inexperienced people will feed them inappropriate foods such as nuts and chocolate. This will allow them to leave this world sooner.
Taking care of ducks can be a difficult situation if you have children. Keep the children and ducks apart if possible. Raising children and ducks, on the other hand, take time.
You might want to wait until the children are old enough to care for themselves so you can devote more time to the animals. The children will be able to assist you in caring for them by that time.
