And what's crazy, is when they are young like that and don't have there adult feathers in yet., They do not enjoy sleeping in on a wet bottom. LOL. They make the mess and they don't like it but HAY it's fun to make it. Right that's all that counts.

Making a mess and then waiting for mum to clean it all up!

I had Five of mine in a guinea pig cage, DON"T know how they did it but they still were able to Shoot poop OUTSIDE the cage and I have call ducks. LOL

Looks like they will learn to keep their cage clean.. by littering the house

Wait until they start SMELLING. OMG, the odor is pretty Nasty if not cleaned several times a day. LOL

OMG the living room will turn into a battlefield with stinky poop all over the furniture and floor!

I'm sorry to hear about that. Ducks bring so much joy but some ducks seem to be born for sorrow. Kaatje visited our garden for years, but last year she had to be put to sleep after a mower got her. She was on her nest in the tall grass   

Having little ones makes it all worth it!

Ducks have so much personality it's a joy to have them around!

Meanwhile my babies are growing up so fast! They're just 8/9 days now and they're getting so big

Time for swimming!



Getting clean!



The one diving looks like a turtle



Afterwards they'll have this weird joker face or something

Awww so glad they're doing well!!! Don't leave them in the water unattended until they're older. They could drown

 

[Kroelies]

Yes they're doing great! Sadly they've not been outside yet, there's been storms and weird weather lately

How's your babies doing?

No I won't leave them alone in the tub. I take them out once they're all done washing and looking bored. I did put a small tub in the swimming pool so they can wash themselves there too. But they mostly use it for drinking haha



It's a foot massage thing

All of mine are doing great!! They got to sit outside together unattended today.
