I have 3 khaki Campbell 2 week old babies on their way! So far we’ve been setting up for their arrival and I needed a bit of advice. It’s been 3 years since I’ve received new ducklings and I don’t want to mess up!
1.) is straw okay for bedding? I’ve always used shavings but our shipment is unfortunately a day late so we won’t be getting them the same day as our ducks (I have hay as well, if that is better)
2.) is Sav-A-Chick Electrolytes a good daily supplement?
3.) can 2 week old ducklings have adult food or will I need duckling food still?
4.) what is the ideal temperature for ducks this age? I don’t want them to overheat.
Thanks for any advice!!
