A mallard hen has brought her ducklings into our backyard pool and they seem to have settled in. What should I do?
The hen and her ducklings will likely stick around if there is plenty of water and food available. This is not the best option for them, however, and it is better if they move to a proper wetland habitat. Leave the ducks alone and do not feed them. If they still do not leave, try to capture them and release them into a proper wetland area.
