The Pekin Duck: Everything You Need to Know
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
The Pekin duck is a classic among duck owners. Pekins are the most sought after breed on the market, and for good reason. Their weight makes them perfect for meat and their gentle demeanor makes them perfect as pets.

I've noticed after raising many ducks, if they are used to picking them up by their underside, you wont have to hold their wings when someone picks them up. I always try to handle ducks by their chassis right after they hatch or they will be spoiled for life lol.
I'm incubating some Pekin Ducks and this info will help a lot! Thank you.
This is so helpful thank you so much!
Wow me growing a pekin duck this helped me know standard basics thank you!

Probably by socializing the duck. The more time you spend with them the more docile they are because they are used to you being around

Do you put diapers on yours or are you just risking getting 💩 on? I’m asking in all seriousness. We just got a Swedish and a Mallard. They are about 3 weeks old. I’m also kind of curious when you think will be a good time to put them outside…? They are about to outgrow the brooder. Thx! ♥️

I do have diapers but they don't come in the house very often because ironically I'm allergic to their "dander"! If the weather is warmer where you are you can put them out sooner but usually it's best to wait until they are fully feathered at 7-9 weeks :)

I noticed your duck seems to be panting. Mine does this. Do they overheat easily or is this a common thing they do?

Pekins usually live between 8 and 12 years so id say somewhere on the upper end of that spectrum
My son ducks are 5 months old and are starting to ramble around in new territory he doesn’t know why. He feeds them good but lately they have been coming in front yard and crossing the road…They have been staying in backyard but he said they act like they are hungry and searching.He is concerned they may wonder in rode and cause an accident. He has a steam behind and beside house they played in

how come my pekin ducklings don’t stand up a lot and keep almost falling over? is there supplement i could provide? it just started recently, they were fine at first.

I would add some NutriDrench to their water and make sure their food has niacin in it and if not, you'll need to give it to them as a supplement. I would also do some research on good supplements for adults, as Pekins tend to develop leg problems over time because of their size

Very misleading I needed to know if they can mate with other breeds
Absolutely psychotic normalized craziness. Petting and animal talking about how cute they are even making names and explaining them all while eating them. Humans are weird mainly due to religion. Time to go vegan and move forward as a species it’s 2023
Cool channel name
I started with 5 id say dont leave water in their enclosure 2 of them drowned, idk how that possible considering they were taller then water level
