Domestic Ducks
Domestic ducks can be fragile for several reasons. Here are some important points to consider: Space and Environment: Ducks need plenty of space to move around and forage. It is recommended to have at least 50 m² of grassy run per duck. Insufficient space can lead to stress and health problems. Diet: A balanced diet is crucial. Ducks need access to a variety of food, including insects and aquatic plants. A pond or pond can provide a natural source of food and water. Companionship: Ducks are social animals and need the company of other ducks to be happy. It’s best to have at least two, but a group of four to six is ideal. Natural Habitat: Domestic ducks must be raised in an environment that respects their natural needs. Raising them inside the house is not recommended, although some use duck-friendly diapers. Health and Care: Ducks can be susceptible to certain diseases and parasites. It is important to monitor their health regularly and consult a specialist veterinarian when necessary. By taking care of these aspects, you can help ensure the well-being and health of your pet ducks.
