    Brooding Help!

    So I have three mallard ducks, and, I have read a lot about brooding. It has really hot outside so I don't want to put a heat lamp by them but I did put a wool hat in their bed. I also have water they can walk in and out of. Is this enough. Is it necessary for them to have a heat lamp?

    Duckling age?

    I got these two mallard ducklings three days ago from a feed store. They are VERY vocal when they’re happy (warm, snack etc). But I was wondering how old they are? Can someone estimate? This is my first time owning any kind of bird!

    Sudden Duckling Death

    A friend of mine found 3 ducklings wandering around her yard with no mother. She happened to bring one to my dads work, where he thought it belonged with another nest of ducklings outside his work. After placing it there he realized it didn't belong because it would run away from it rather than...

    Daisy or Duke?

    We have two mallard ducklings. I am pretty certain that they are both different sexes but would like to get some opinions (in fact in photos I'm even more certain). I think Daisy is Duke and Duke is Daisy! But that's fine! I think our Duke may be the one showing on the top of the photos...
