HI! I am new to the forum and ducks in general. I got a cayuga duckling and a pekin duckling a few days ago, they are about 2-3 weeks old.
My question is about my pekin. Its mouth is open and it appears to be panting and its feet and belly are so hot its scary. I know that keeping ducklings warm seems to be the big concern but what about ducklings that are too hot? It can get around 90 degrees in my room where they are currently staying..
Is the ducky overheating? What can I do to help? And is this going to be an issue when I move them outside in a few weeks?
