Thanks for the replies. I do have Storey's Guide. The balding isn't noticeable when they're dry. They are 9 days old now. I'm currently building a 4'x8' brooder for them. I thought that we would have more time before we had to expand the brooder size but these things constantly drink, eat...

The brooder is a 3'6" x 2'4" plastic tote with 8 ducklings in it. We started out at 90* in the brooder and by now, they appear 'hot' at 80*. We spend a lot of time with them and they don't seem to preen excessively and they don't peck at each other excessively.

It got up to 89* here yesterday so we took our 8 day old ducklings outside. We put a shallow cake pan with a little luke-warm water in it with them and they loved playing in the water. At that time, we noticed balding on 3 of our cayugas from the back of the head to where the wings begin...

Just received my order from efowl.com. One Cayuga duck was dead upon arrival and another is very sluggish and is pooping blood.

Coming to Nebraska: On march 12, I should receive 8 Cayuga and 2 pekin female ducklings. And April 8, I should receive 5 barred rock female chicks and 5 easter egger female chicks.

First time fowler. I'm expecting barred rocks and easter eggers for layers. And cayuga and peking ducks just for fun. Arriving in March and April.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm getting Barred Rocks and Easter Eggers. As wells as Peking and Cayuga ducks.

Getting a few layer chicks and a few ducks in a few weeks. Ordered online and wont receive for another few weeks. Stumbled across this site and joined today. I cannot believe how much information is here. Thanks for having me.
