Question by : Would a mother Mallard Duck attack another mother Ducks Ducklings?
HI, i went to the local pond with my father today and we saw five different litters of ducklings, and there was this one really mean mother duck who had three duckilngs that attacked a duckling of another litter of a different mother duck that also had three ducklings and she attacked one of those ducklings and then went after the mother duck.
So do you reckon that this is normal mother duck behavior or does it seem wierd that she would do that?
Please Respond,
THANKS!

Question by laurencharlene1018: I need directions and a blueprint for construction a mallard duck household.Does anyone have a excellent website?
I need to know the dimensions for the household, as well as how huge the hole wants to be for the ducks to get in. Thanks!
As someone else implied, I am not “imprisoning” ducks. I am construction a household to place in the middle of a pond for them to have some shelter. Sorry if I offended anyone by making you reckon I was going to keep ducks as prisoners.

Each casting is hand finished using an antiquing dash that everlastingly changes the exterior surface to one of the colors listed above. Due to the scenery of this process, each casting will have devious variations in the color, giving your statue an individual and unique character. As your statue ages, it will develop its own darkening – or patina. Garden statues are made in the USA of a copyrighted poured concrete mixture. These are considered “frost resistant” and can be used in most any climate
One of our ducks has disappeared, they were in a secure area with a fresh water pond and always walked around in a group. But, in recent days Daphne (the missing duck) and Darcey our other mallard were flying too and from the forest beside our household, last night Daphne didn’t return. Unfortunately she may have been taken by a predator, but, one of our aylesbury ducks is currently nesting at home, is it possible that a mallard duck force prefer to nest in undergrowth or trees & force disappear while nesting?
I place this video together because I used to find it hard to identify a gadwall amongst a flight of female mallards. Both the male and female gadwall have a white patch at the base of the hind wing. The female mallard has a blue patch in the same place. This is the simplest way to tell them apart particularly at a distance. Video was taken at Slimbridge WWT in March 2008. Edited in IMovie HD 6.0.4. Filmed on handheld Canon MV880X.
This video was taken with a digital camera around August 18, 2009. These ducks and ducklings live in a sewer and the 70% of the ducklings don’t make it to the fledging stage. These orphans from 3 different clutches were borned between late June and first week of July. River otters had killed their moms when the ducklings were 2 to 4 weeks ancient. The seven (of twelve) orphan ducklings – about 6 weeks ancient — waiting for me to give them Mazuri duck food with key vitamins and minerals. Around 14 seconds into the video my favorite duckling stands in the water to get my attention s/he does this often. Public don’t know how quick ducklings grow — very nearly doubling their weight each week for 8 weeks. These ducklings have to eat to develop their feathers and their wings. Lastly, these are wild ducks so please don’t feed bread or other human food which can harm or kill these ducklings / ducks.

One of our resident Mallard couples fittingly chose Earth Day to introduce us to their ducklings. It was the first brood of the season at Hidden Falls, and its debut was rife with terrifying moments that lasted until dusk. A few days after this ordeal, another brood emerged with a second Mallard pair, and our favorite goose and gander added a quintet of goslings to make Hidden Falls a vibrant and exciting waterfowl nursery. UPDATE May 14, 2009: The ducklings continue to fare well, but we are down to ten from this brood. For the week that followed Earth Day, we had to rescue separated ducklings five more times. The first duckling we lost was the one you can see was injured in the fall. (It’s also the one that sought after to go back in the bucket.) He just disappeared one day. Then we lost another to a red-shouldered hawk. We’ve witnessed two such attacks from hawks, one from a Blue Heron that I caught on film, and one attack from a snapping turtle. We’ve also had another brood show up from our crazy duck. The waterfowl count as it stands today: 10 from this brood, two other broods of five each and one brood of five goslings for a total of 25 childish’uns and 12 or so adults. This is the busiest spring we’ve seen at Hidden Falls. The flying lessons the ducklings receive are truly fascinating. We don’t know how the mamas communicate their expectations to their respective broods, but they do so with the efficiency and perseverance of a drill sergeant. They are so much fun …
