You can't unless you have a broody hen on eggs that are about to hatch. Put the little ducklings under that hen at night. You may have to take some of her eggs though, so you can put the ducklings in her nest. This has worked for some people but there's a possibility it won't work. It's just something you can try. Try one duckling one night and watch very closely the next day.

Keep them separated. Attacking anything different is common among animals.
Yes, keep them separated. Chickens need a drier environment than ducks do.

∙ 12y agoby feeding it pieces of bread and then you have to wipe a cloth just over its nose. it would'NT bite. seriously, even I've a duck.
Depends on the situtation. They're really difficult to upset. If you've upset him, just back off. Give him room until his stops honking or chasing you. He will calm down on his own.
If it's a fight for a mate...well, good luck! If a male mallard feels another male is trying to steal his woman there is no way to calm him down. You can chase him, and he'll run, but he'll go right back to the offender wanting to fight. You can yell at him to stop but only if he knows you will he listen.
If the duck is hysterical because it has witnessed the loss of a mate or child I would recommend calling a wildife rehabber. It may need a sedative.
I only ran into this case once, where I ran across a duck that was quacking consistantly for over 15 minutes...I'm not sure how he breathed!...I called "hello" to him over and over again, like I was a bird who repeats her call, and finally he came around and looked at me. He did stop.

∙ 10y agoWell, I know what you mean I'm going through it right now actually. What I did was buy another small pet. I got a baby bunny. They got along and kept each other company and so on. Now he doesn't chirp much anymore. My advice is to buy another baby pet to keep company while they grow up together.

You can't stop 'em from crowing, but you can muffle the noise (between certain hours) by keeping them inside your house (in cages!) or in a sound-boarded chicken house.

If any light is getting in the coop he will not settle well. Make sure the inside of the coop is dark once the sun goes down.
