despite a wobbly start, the premature ducks are looking stronger  :thumbsup:  each one has different colouring. they are a mixture of aylseburies and runners

But someone tell me - what is it about separate water, chick crumbs and shavings that upset ducklings so much? Why do they work so hard to mix them to an even consistency?  ;)  :&>

Well done!  :bouquet:
our invalid duck is sitting but I'm not sure when she got started though...- I hope some of the eggs I gave her a fertile! I'd love to have ducklings again! :&>

thanks all :)
we have 6 ducklings, doubtful if we'll get anymore...

I love my chickens & chicks ... but there's something soooo cute about fluffy ducklings, and these are so tame compared to the loony chicks we have!
