Sounds like you are doing everything right! Congrats on your ducks! I was counting the sleeps until my chicks arrived, so I completely understand. I only wanted 4 - 6 hens, but everyone said order extra, some will die. Now I have 9. I have given ACV from day one, and I did give them medicated feed. You are lucky to be able to free range your chickens, I wish I could do that here. I do plan to let them out, but only when I can be with them the whole time. We have way too many predators here. In fact, our neighbour has a bear tearing down her electric fence every night trying to get to her cattle. I completely agree with you that we probably intervene too much. I am treating them like they are babies, lol.
Good luck with your ducklings!!!
