ducks scared of pond

9 years ago

I have 3 ducks that are two months old and they are being raised with 8 chickens the same age. There is a pond on our property and I keep trying to coax them to use it. If I put them in it they run off scared and quacking away. Any tips on how to "swim like a duck" here?
