My 12 year old daughter surprised us with a shipment of 2 pekin ducks (she used her easter visa gift card to order and didn't tell anybody or ask!...😒)a few days ago they're 5 days old now and we're just in love they're so friendly and sweet
I have a friend who knows someone with a farm and that person started raising a few ducklings. He would a small portable TV in the cage and he plays duck videos all day. Now that are adults and live in their own barn type hen house and he put a TV in there that runs during the day. I was over there one time not too long ago and he brought me over to their hen house and they are sitting there watching the TV. I was like, "No, come on now". He laughs and says, "Watch this". He turns off the power to the TV. After a few seconds they start making noise and freaking out. One jumps down and walks over to him quacking and just seemed a little distressed. He turns the power back and all of a sudden, silence. And the duck that jumped down goes back to watching the TV. Its absolutely hilarious!
I'm gonna write a story about a grumpy man that had his heart melted by a family of ducks that decided to move to the small lake next to his cottage, I'll use your video as a reference for the little ducklings' growth 🥰
My 3 year old grandson wanted a duck so bad & got surprised today with 2♡ He's so happy💝I'm thinking about getting a couple Pekin ducks here for him too:) Great video. I love how caring you are with these beautiful animals ❤️
Such a wonderful story! Thank you, Chris! I will be watching this again and recommending to my friends. Great video to watch when you need your spirit uplifted.
Just got a little cracked up. Was in the reptile community for a few years and now we moved and I just got my first farm birds and was checking this video out, noticed the voice was super familiar, the looked at the name, said “nooo that can’t be the same guy” and sure enough 😄 looks like you’ve helped me through 2 animal journeys
I have to say it gave me so much Joy just to see and h e a r how much joy you get out of talking about these little babies. So thank you for that. Of course this isn't Robert talking LOL anyhow I was leaning very much joy of watching this video and just hearing your giggle well it made me smile awesome! Thank you again I loved the video and I needed the smile
I rescued a peking, I named her waddles, from a lake. She had a fracture leg and no one wanted to help. I caught her and she had 2 surgeries, but couldn't have her fracture fixed so i kept her. I bought her a girl friend Bella, to keep her company. We moved and i brought my girls with me to another state. I have had them now for 3 years. They have the best life, any duck would be jealous of them. They make the best pets, i love them.
I found two peking ducklings two weeks ago. One of the duckling die the next day that i found them. the other duckling is doing find. Do they make a lot of noise?
I have six ducks and 8 chickens. My ducks just lay around the yard. They love my flower garden because it’s full of worms and cool. Good luck on your ducks.
@@jillmonroe4938 Unattended ducks will destroy a flower bed if left too long because they dig holes to wash their beaks in and to look for food and it can kill plants that don't have well established root systems...my suggestion would be to either move them around very frequently or to invest in some "weeder geese"
I love your voice and tone on the subject of the birds! So sweet! We have 4 pekin ducks that are not ours, but they came up the boat ramp and I feed them shelled corn and cracked corn. Don't know who owns them on our private lake, but they are happy! They do chase the mallards out, but I feed them all, so they are all happy!
Thank you chris me and my spouse were given 2 ducks for easter by some friend's. Ive been looking at videos how others clean and take care of their ducks. Its gonna be alot of fun.
Love your ducks, I have 4 pekins, 2 hens and 2 drakes as well as 4 mallards, 2 hens and 2 drakes. I bought them one of those kid pools that are solid walled, every other day I drain it and refill it, they have a blast in it. Hope you have a great day.
Wow! This is really amazing. I am starting out with Pekin ducks and they have started laying. I wanna incubate the eggs and raise them when they are still ducklings and see how they grow.
Hopefully you have at least one fertile drake... We made that mistake once (we were lied to about how old the Drake actually was) and we had an entire incubator full of rotten eggs🤢
Amazing property you have. Beautiful Colorado. I love these videos which show all your other animals. Crazy how big the Pekins grow in a relatively short period of time.
Thank you so much! This video helped me figure out how old my rescued pekin duckling is. It’s amazing how much larger this breed gets compared to others!
I raised a trio of these back when I was 20. When you look in the frozen meat case "Long Island Duckling" is this breed. Probably why they grow so big so fast. I currently have Peruvian Araucana chickens in black-copper and there's a strain of white in there - I find the hawks seem to zero in on the white birds easier than my blacks. I usually have some brush-pile or obstacle for them to run under when there's an "air raid". Maybe get a cattle panel cut into two 8' sections, and bend it top-to-bottom around a tree to make half a hoop and lay them in your yards or any graze you let them into - cover with tree-branches... give them air-raid shelters.
Thank you for that video. I was giving some pekins for my birthday and was not exactly sure on their age, your video makes me believe they must be around 20 days. .
I got 50 pieces 18 days old pekins, they eat a lot. I've always wanted to have a Cayuga, there are few breeders here in my country, but the price is way too high.
Wow they're just so cute and adorable 😍 I also have this Pekin duck and they're soooo loud good thing we don't have a neighbor or else they'll sue us because of my ducks noise lol. -your fan from PH
Hi I am currently raising Pekin ducklings and I was wondering what the outside temperature was like when you started letting them stay out all day around when they are 21 days old? Like a ballpark estimate of the temperature range?
This is more question than comment. In your video on selling duck eggs. You put them in an incubator. But how long did you incubate them? And then you took the eggs and wrapped them in bubble wrap and shipped them. How can they be hatched when they reach their destination? Can you please tell me how that works? Thank you. Lezlee...
we added 2 baby pekins and 10 baby Indian runners this year...they have spent the last 8 weeks together...Im not sure they realize they are different, other than the male pekin seems to think he is king of the pond. Next week they are leaving the juvenile run, as we call it the day care center, and in with the adult ducks and chickens...hate doing it, but its necessary ..
I've hatched a 7 Perkins total for my sister-in-law but I incubated1 first. I get to keep the first one that is about 5 weeks old. I'd like to keep a hen and drake but idk how to tell the gender. No curled feather yet on the older one.
This is my first time to raise ducks and geese and I enjoy it. I am going to try and train them to go inside a sheaf at night. My question is that hasn’t anyone got high tech on the fight against owls and hawks. I would think that a motion sensor with some type of laser light that picks up the birds swooping down and then it trigger a loud noise and at night a flashing light. I just wonder if anything like that has been made but I haven’t seen it. Sadly to many duck get attacked. On the ground it’s pretty easy to stop predictors using an electric fence.
my pekin Winnie is almost two months old (49 days to be exact) and he still has some of his yellow duckling fluff and his wing feathers are just starting to come in, is this normal because i saw it didn’t coincide with the pekins in the video and i’m a little worried
What can i do: My duckling came out of its shell yesterday morning since a day and a half ago. It has not eaten or drank water since yesterday. what can i do to make it eat and rink. though she is still wobbly on his feet. Please help, thank you!
This is so cute. You have way too many birds lol. We have 2 Peking’s prob around 40 days old. They were hatched at my daughters school. We have a completely closed moveable run (foxes are the biggest threat) and keep them on the grass, great fertilizer. They do eat a lot and need water all day lol. we are in a saltwater bay so I hope they will get used to taking a dip there.
Question why don't you put a baby pool or 2 out there for all your ducks just Curious. And Ducks dont actually need water to live like swim in ? Sorry for stupid questions but got to learn lol.
Bro i got the same ducklings 2 weeks ago but they are not growing well they just look like a 3 4 days ducklings also they are so afraid of swimming what should i do now?
My 12 year old daughter surprised us with a shipment of 2 pekin ducks (she used her easter visa gift card to order and didn't tell anybody or ask!...😒)a few days ago they're 5 days old now and we're just in love they're so friendly and sweet
Haha omg that would be so mee 😂😂
she has great taste
Hope your ducks are doing great!
That's so sweet of her!Bless her kind heart ❤️
Hopefully you didn't punish her for it

Lol
That actually terrible.
That's precisely how people react, too. Sad. It's just proof that television is bad for all of us.
We demand more screens!
I'm gonna write a story about a grumpy man that had his heart melted by a family of ducks that decided to move to the small lake next to his cottage, I'll use your video as a reference for the little ducklings' growth 🥰
Where can I read it?
where’s the book at
The fact that they travel together at all times, the three musketeers😂
IM OVERWHELMD WITH CUTENESS, also when theyre taking a swim in the sink they look highlighter neon
Precious, precious, sweet, cute webbed duck birbs. Thank you for this wonderful and positive video story.
Those Pekins are very beautiful!
where did you come from lmao
@@owouwu9032 My Peking duck was killed by a wild cat in early in the morning 2.30 AM
You using U tube for 15 Years
Hold up 8 BIT GUY? I have been such a fan for 3 years!
Wow did not expect to see the 8 bit guy
My 3 year old grandson wanted a duck so bad & got surprised today with 2♡ He's so happy💝I'm thinking about getting a couple Pekin ducks here for him too:) Great video. I love how caring you are with these beautiful animals ❤️
I have 5 ducks and I recommend building some sort of roof or tarp to protect from any hawks.
Stay safe and keep those ducks safe as well!
:-)
Awe. I used to have ducks when I was younger such cute babies. I loved seeing them dart around in the kitchen sink...lol
Such a wonderful story! Thank you, Chris! I will be watching this again and recommending to my friends. Great video to watch when you need your spirit uplifted.

Do ducks tear up your flowers? Do they just feed in them looking for bugs and worms?

Lol, loved seeing them dive under water in the sink. 🐤
That was so cute. The other one copied and then they realised how good it was and kept doing it 🤣
Too cute ! I’m was thinking about raising a couple ducks but now I’m completely sold!!

thanku for an awesome video, it helped me a lot to tell the age of my Pekins that I rescued.
Thank you so much! This video helped me figure out how old my rescued pekin duckling is. It’s amazing how much larger this breed gets compared to others!
Wow. Seems great. I have 100 pekin ducks which are 13 days old now
Would love to have the variety of animals you have! Great content!

Great Video, Love your enthusiasm.
Excellent progression video of Pekin ducks growing up
Those ducks are adorable. My first try at ducks come next week. Thanks

Pretty incredible how fast they grow.
Ducks are so cute 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
THANKYOU! I got my feather fix! Loved it
ducks are adorable
Loved it Chris!
I have a Pekín and a Rouen and I was concerned at the difference in size, glad to know it’s normal!!
I love your Cayugas!
So cute, appreciate your patience
Love the ducks, too cute
I like the fact that you don't kill them for meat, I like them for everything and if I did that I couldn't live with myself
I’m glad they were OK it out by themselves in the open I hope they have a place to hide in case there is a hawk
Wow they're just so cute and adorable 😍
I also have this Pekin duck and they're soooo loud good thing we don't have a neighbor or else they'll sue us because of my ducks noise lol.
-your fan from PH
PH?? 🤨🤨
Did peckin duck ducklings eat A lot and drink a lot water
those guys are my homies
Very nice set up you have, there all so beautifully!
I know from experience these animals bring happiness to you.
That was awesome chris great job
Nothing is happier than training your pokemon to level 100.
Hi I am currently raising Pekin ducklings and I was wondering what the outside temperature was like when you started letting them stay out all day around when they are 21 days old? Like a ballpark estimate of the temperature range?
what is the weight of a bird at 45 days?
This is more question than comment. In your video on selling duck eggs. You put them in an incubator. But how long did you incubate them? And then you took the eggs and wrapped them in bubble wrap and shipped them. How can they be hatched when they reach their destination? Can you please tell me how that works? Thank you.

I love pekin, I personally raise american geese, pekin ducks, welsh harlequin, and ancona.
I have 3 ducklings just like yours. So friendly and cute so far so good
try pouring some gravel on the berm to keep the drinking water clean
Lovely video, thank-you.
I've hatched a 7 Perkins total for my sister-in-law but I incubated1 first. I get to keep the first one that is about 5 weeks old. I'd like to keep a hen and drake but idk how to tell the gender. No curled feather yet on the older one.
Wow I'm the second person to watch this video. Cool can't raise a bird to save my life
What do you mean you can't raise one to save your life lol
He sounds so happy xD

In the first minute they are trying to eat that moth through the glass!
Hi i was just wondering do you sell the eggs or meat to make money to keep your operation solvent or is this just a hobbie.
i’m going to be getting my own soon for some fresh eggs!

14:30 what are the black ducks called?
not gonna lie, those ducks look well fed lol. They may even look happy o.O....
nice. i'm having 10 for the moment. can you share where you got these wood at the end?
that seem pretty cute ducks
Wow! Very informative video. Thank you for sharing.
Love the video, it's pretty funny.
How can i get some Pekin egg ducks in France 78 ( near paris ) do you know any place? Its just so hard to find
Did you use a heat lamp for them? I’m a little weary about using one. Someone told me that they never used one for the ducks.
If they are cold without a lamp, they will bunch up and even pile up which can be hard on the weakest and smallest.
what exactly are you doing with all those ducks?
Seems like it takes forever for ducks to get their feathers while chickens seem to get theirs immedietly
Do they need a heat lamp when there babies
When did you stop using heat lamps?
I have two ducks , now they poop all over 🤣🤣🤣
I have one Pekin and one black and yellow one and I'm not sure what it is but it's not a mallard but the Pekin is much bigger
Love this type of video
my pekin Winnie is almost two months old (49 days to be exact) and he still has some of his yellow duckling fluff and his wing feathers are just starting to come in, is this normal because i saw it didn’t coincide with the pekins in the video and i’m a little worried
now they're picking on them 10 days later the pekins: now git!!!!! other ducks and chickens: runs away
These white ducks are 13% of the barn's duck population but contribute to 52% of the cuteness
Wao they're looking beautiful, how can I get them.i will like to rear them.. please drop ur contact thanks..
What a nice statistic😁
THEIR LITTLE BEAKS LOOK LIKE TINY JELLYBEANS I WANT TO HUG THEM ALL
It's wonderful video ,thank you so much
What can i do: My duckling came out of its shell yesterday morning since
a day and a half ago. It has not eaten or drank water since yesterday.
what can i do to make it eat and rink. though she is still wobbly on his
feet. Please help, thank you!
Ducks are more fun than chickens. You can talk to them and they talk back.
He’s such a happy man:/

I have a pekin and its fully white and it has one black spot on him
Bro i got the same ducklings 2 weeks ago but they are not growing well they just look like a 3 4 days ducklings also they are so afraid of swimming what should i do now?
How are the duck's?
Can you keep males and females cherry valley? will they breed? & can you incubate the eggs
I remember out Momma duck 1st thing she always did was take her just hours old ducklings for a swim in the pond
why don't you have your coop predator proof ?
