Sure does... or foe smaller batches (and smaller ducks, lol) starting them out in table height brooders works wonders too... biggest thing is letting them come to you...

Yeah. That too. Lol. Yeah, I hatched these when the chicks were still in the barn and lack of brooder space put them about waist high on a stack of wood. (In a wooden brooder box) for the first week and a half. Indeed.

Haha. Actually, I'm picking up our first chicks, three speckled Sussex, Monday evening! My oldest doesn't know. She started crying when we sold her speckled Sussex last summer, so I'm pretty excited to surprise her!

Peg's impression of a wood duck...

Picked that up brand new for $4 at the auction... couldn't pass it up and Peg LOVES it!

My girl. Too cute!

I swear you get the coolest pictures . Eye is much better still on the drops though .We had two gully washers today long heavy rains put the river over the bridge .

Thanks! Glad the eye is improved.

Ducklings are getting used to me, like talking to me, but don't want to be touched at the moment.
I did get them all inside without too much trouble tonite. They all went on their own and I didn't have to traumatize them by catching them. Last night had to catch 5 that couldn't figure out the ramp lol. Progress.
