    Duck Feathers

    This is normal. Mine are a week older than yours and I asked the same question about weeks ago. Give them about a week and you will see new fluffy down and feathers.

    Duckling Feather Stages..Question

    This is my first time raising ducks and I'm not sure what's going on with they're feathers. They are 2 1/2 weeks old and seem to be going bald in some areas or just completely thined out.
