ern, my mallard whom has been brooding for a month has finaly become a mother.

 

 

and i have a few questions about mallard ducklings.

 

 

what food do i need for them? (im in austria and no big brands here!)

what age can i take them away from the mother ?(to tame)

how can i tell thier gender?(and what age?)

 

 

note: they are not wild and have been born from my pet duck i bought from a breeder. so im not disturbing the nature

You might be better asking these questions on the Practical Poultry forum, where they have far more Duck keepers.
