    I'm glad to hear your sweetie is getting around well too. Our special babies are lucky to have such mommies. I love all my animals but I am in love with my baby ducks! Keep up the great work!

    Just wanted to let everyone know that all three ducks are doing wonderfully. They get lots of exercise and tons of love. They still enjoy the warm water swims. I can't believe how tame they are. I hope they stay like this. Thank you again to everyone that helped. I was terrified and helpless and...

    The sweet babies are doing great! I put them in the bathtub with warm water to their knees. Just for a little treat. Just 5 minutes. They are buddy bound. So if I take one away the others yell until I come for them. They are so obedient. I put them on the floor in front of their cage afterwards...

    I will pray for your babies, as you pray for mine. I will update on their progress. They are resting well right now and even quack every now and then.

    Your post nearly brought me to tears. I cant believe how supportive all of you have been. I believe one would be hard pressed to find a farmer who doesn't pray for the animals in their charge. All things are in His hands, but sometimes he expects us to use our hands to bring about His blessings...

    You know, I got these sweeties on an impulse. Now I am so smitten with them! They are so loving and fun. I can't thank all of you at BYC enough for your advice. This went from terrifying to hopeful. Though I hate what happened, I loved hugging them in warm towels for several hours. They snuggled...

    Ok, the blood red area in between her wings is naked skin. It continues under her wings just a little bit as well. I can only guess at their age. I have had them for a month.

    I'm new to ducks, so forgive my ignorance. I cant upload a photo on my tablet. It is acting up badly. I will keep working on it though. I'm sure a picture would help explain better. We lock up (tuck in) all our fowl evey night. The ducks have a fenced in play yard for daytime use. We put...

    They are roughly 2 months old. I am keeping them in the house for as long as possible. I went ahead and moved their light from overhead. It is now shining just in front of their wire cage. When they were outside (before this incident) they were not even sitting under their heat lamp at all. We...

    So I may have "special" ducks now? Poor babies! I'm just glad they're mine. I hate to think what others might do in this situation. Thank you for your support.

    Our ducklings spent the night in their little pond. Apparently they couldn't get out. It was 90 degrees yesterday and 70 last night. Their was light rain this morning. I found them about 7:30 this morning. They were still moving their legs to stay afloat, but their eyes were closed and they...
