    Ducklings! New pics.

    The babies are 2 1/2 weeks old now and they've been on the back porch for a few days. Heres some new pics. I moved the brooder on dirt today. I think I'll move it around daily so they dont make too much of a mess. They're still using the fake mama but only like 25% of the time.

    I'm totally lurking but I have an answer. 3 weeks seems to be when my chicks abandon the ecoglow and I pull it out for the next batch. My main brooder has a string of christmas lights for extra warmth since its outside but 3 weeks is about the length they need the serious warmth. Nice to be...

    Ducklings! New pics.

    The two came from tractor supply. I'm not sure what hatchery they use. They're suprisingly friendly considering the guy grabbing them was joking around about 'The Claw Game' and was chasing them aroung the brooder! lol The brooder was SO CLEAN though considering they had them for 2 days when I...

    Extra eggshells? DIY Easter decorating thread.

    I did tomato seeds in shells two years ago. The homegrown eggs have shells that are too thick to transplant directly into the ground but all you have to do is crack the egg open and transplant them. If you have different color eggs you can start different types of seeds in each color...

    Ducklings! New pics.

    Yep, that's him! He's always out in front of the group waiting for me to get him. I pick him up and snuggle him under my neck and he tries to preen me and likes when I pet him. I let them swim in the tub once already. I towel dried them after and stuck them under the fake mama and they preened...

    Ducklings! New pics.

    I have a few new pics of the babies. Theyre still in their kiddie pool brooder. They're pretty friendly little ducks. One of the blue swedes loves to be held. They're a week and a half old. I'm not sure if this little one is black or really dark brown.. We'll see I guess.

    I didnt take home the 4-6 week old lab puppy someone was trying to ditch in the parkinglot and I resisted all the chicks TSC still had, so heck, whats a few more ducklings when you dont have a new puppy!? Normally I WOULD have ended up with the puppy too, expecially since she had messed up...

    Ducklings! New pics.

    I LOVE the ecoglows! I have two 20's and they work great. This is the first time I've used it with ducklings but its working very well. I looked and searched but barely found anything about raising ducklings under them, besides the general description "Works well for chickens and waterfowl". I...

    Ducklings! New pics.

    I ended up with 7 baby ducks today. I was supposed to get 3 at first, then it turned into 5. Met the girl in the Tractor Supply parking lot and went in to get some shavings. They had a TON of ducklings still. So I ended up with 2 more because thats the minimum! Oh and I'm not telling dbf about...
