A great article detailing a personal experience, however as somebody who has never reared chicks nor ducks, I feel the article perhaps needs a bit more explication on the jargon (for example, what is "lockdown" in terms of incubation?), as well as a bit more comparison information of chicks vs ducklings on: food availability and requirements (do they eat the same food?); time demands and schedules; area and space requirements; and expenditure differences (if there are any). Otherwise I enjoyed the flow and heart of the article. Thank you.
