Lol, I'll add more. Its funny how big of a difference there is between the two new ones and the one that hatched. They're warming up but they still run from me. He's like "Oh, hey mom!" and comes right up. We've decided that if he does in fact end up being male, he's going to be Daryl Duck-son...
On the little bar in the top of the text box, next to the button to add a photo, there is a button that looks like a film. Kinda between the photo and emoticon logo.

No it's ok! Like I said, I'm new and I want to make sure I make the best decisions in the care of this little guy.

Went hone for lunch and checked o him. Still seems well. I think he needs a friend and I've though about going to the feed store and buying him one. I'm torn though because they only have giant pekins and rouens. I was hoping for a small duck for my small yard and I'm already gonna have a giant...
Ladies and gents, it's the morning after an we still have a fluffy duckling. One that thinks my nose ring might make good eating. Thank you so much for your help, L. And all the thoughts and concerns from everyone else. When can I give this baby some food!
