Pros: Cute - Haven't had them long enough to weigh in
Cons: Makes a mess!
Purchased 12 ducklings for my muscovy who was sitting on infertile eggs. She decided she didn't want to parent after that, and I was stuck raising these 12 little ones.
They are adorable, but they require a ton of work as all ducks do. Once they are outside, I love them a whole lot more!
They are 4 weeks old now, and I put them with the flock. They are doing wonderful. They sleep in a pile, so they keep one-another warm, and are the easiest to herd. I love watching them play in the water outdoors. In the barn (in the brooder) I was getting sick of all the wet shavings. They also seem less afraid of me now that they are outside. I plan to keep a trio.
