Sally's Duck Rescue

Adopting from Sally's Duck Rescue

We have so many wonderful ducks needing a new forever home, some of whom are shown on this page. If you would like to get in touch about adopting please click on one of the find out more buttons.

Please be aware we only rehome females with a male/males due to the large number of boys we have waiting for new homes.


Once you have been in touch to express an interest in adopting, we will contact you by email and phone.

We will ask you questions about your setup, knowledge and try to match you and the right ducks together.


If you are approved for adoption we will then agree a suitable time for you to collect your ducks, we are based in Norfolk (PE14). It is important to bring the right kind of carrier - please ask for advice (Cardboard boxes are not suitable).


You will be asked to complete an adoption form for the ducks you are matched with and for a donation, either on the day or in advance.

Donations can be any amount, as the most important thing is a good home for them but please do give what you can so we can help more ducks in future.


Once you have adopted from us we remain available for any questions or advice for life. 

We also know that sometimes circumstances change, therefore if something isn't working or you cant keep them any more we will always take them back - no questions or judgement.


If you are looking for information about transferring care of your ducks to Sallys Duck Rescue, please go here

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Here at the rescue, we are often asked about what is required to care for a domestic duck. 


Q: What kind of environment do ducks need to be healthy and happy?

A: Ducks need a safe and secure environment with access to clean water, which they can swim in and submerge their heads, shade, shelter, and space to roam and forage. They also need a balanced diet that includes waterfowl feed, greens, and insects.


Q: How much space do ducks need to be happy?

A: Ducks require at least 4 square feet of indoor space and 10-20 square feet of outdoor space per bird, depending on the breed and size. More space is always better.


Q: What kind of shelter do ducks need?

A: Ducks need a shelter that protects them from the elements, including rain, wind, and extreme temperatures. A sturdy coop or barn with good ventilation and a dry, comfortable nesting area is ideal.


Q: How often do ducks need access to water?

A: Ducks need access to clean water at all times for drinking, bathing, and preening. A kiddie pool or more ideally a pond can provide deep enough that they can put their heads under the water fully is required

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Q: What should I feed my ducks?

A: Ducks need a balanced diet that includes a complete waterfowl feed, greens, and insects. It is important to avoid feeding them bread, crackers, or other processed foods that can cause digestive problems.


Q: Do ducks need vaccinations or regular check-ups?

A: Ducks do not require vaccinations, but regular check-ups with a veterinarian who specialises in avian health can help identify and treat any health issues before they become serious.


Q: Can ducks be kept with other poultry or livestock?

A: Yes, ducks can be kept with other poultry or livestock as long as they have enough space and are properly supervised. However, it is important to note that ducks mating with chickens, or the other way around can be an issue. Please contact us for advice. 


Q: How can I keep my ducks safe from predators?

A: Ducks are vulnerable to many predators, including foxes, rats, and birds of prey. It is important to provide a secure house or coop and to supervise the ducks when they are outside. Installing motion-activated lights or alarms can also deter predators as well as surrounding your duck's enclosure with electric fencing.

Critically you will need fencing that is high enough to ensure a fox cannot get into their space.

Ducks must be locked up in bed at night for their safety.
