My chicks always love dry oatmeal out of my hand. I have to wear a glove now that they are older. It has to be the same glove or one that looks like the one they have gotten used to. If I try to use another they run away from it.

Ok thanks, I was getting alittle depressed when I thought they were all dead. Wow, these little guys can drive you batty can't they. I work at a nursing home as an aide. I had told all the old ladies about the ducks at work. I was hoping to take the ducks in to show them off. How many days...
