All of my ducklings are Khaki Cambrells and yes I keep them all in the same brooder now that they have met and all like each other

How old are yours? I would be really disappointed if I only got two of four that I ordered! What hatchery did you use?Right! Sorry that is jujubeans2008. Yea MoonMoon the magpieI post on to many threadsthat's right you've got the Hawaii Queen and Adele, and the J names, with the eversopopular Quackers and Puddles. Yes mine share the same brooder they seem happy. I also got a messed order. They sent me 2 of the 4 I ordered so I had to reorder the other 2
They don't pile up on each other when they're sleeping or push the little ones away when they are eating or drinking?All of my ducklings are Khaki Cambrells and yes I keep them all in the same brooder now that they have met and all like eac h other

I'm thinking about putting mine together, but I'm not sure because the older ones are so much bigger! But if yours have a greater age difference than mine and are still fine living together maybe it'd be OK. Next week is supposed to be warm here, so maybe they can go out together, and I'll see how they do.
Awww, that's sounds so cute! I think, after hearing your experience, that I'll give them time together as often as possible and when the little ones outgrow their brooder (which will be soon), they can go together. I'm assuming by then the big ones will be used to the little ones enough that they'll won't bite at them. I would put them together now, but Adele is a bully and I have to watch her around the little ones!The older ones push the little ones out of the way a little bit but the babies are persistent and push their way back in. I'm not concerned with the little ones being pushed out of the way because they always have constant access to food and water and it's not like the big ones are eating and drinking 24/7. The only thing I've noticed is the little ones like to always be with the big ones so once they start running the little ones get trampled a bit but they get right back up and run with them. Since they've met they're inseparable and our big ducks are lost without their babies.
