    Two 11 week old ducklings w/o their mother

    Gotcha. Well, this is a lot more reassuring now and it seems as if she did let the babies go. We will see what the options are later today and go from there. Thank you so much for the expertise.

    Two 11 week old ducklings w/o their mother

    Seriously? So this is a normal thing then, correct? They are wild as I mentioned we don't own them, but they like coming to our backyard. Do you think they will be ok on their own or do you think they are still too young and will be at risk? We want them to get along with the other ducks that...

    Two 11 week old ducklings w/o their mother

    Hey everyone! For the last few weeks, a mama Muscovy duck and her babies would come to our backyard to eat and sleep. We don't own them and they just like to roam around out neighborhood. They follow a strict schedule with things and go to a place where they sleep at night. They come to our...

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Thank you so much. I appreciate the sentiment. Yeah, I totally get that. I know that its not like you can't find Gators in South Florida, and it is literally a part of FL. Having said that, I know it is near impossible for any gator to be where I live. I have lived in the same house for about...

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Yeah I definitely have not seen any alligators here in South Florida and if there was one spotted, it probably had been moved back to the everglades. Its way too much of a city for one to be here, especially children around. We do have snapping turtles, so those are here. I doubt it would be a...

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Hi there. No, we do not have any Alligators. That I am positive. All the alligators live in the Everglades, and I live in a suburban area that is gated.

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Wow, that makes me so sad. I have never seen that before, so I thought that was impossible for just that count and even for almost near adult ducks. At this point, we will try and see if we can try keep these two to survive, but idk.

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Hey there! I feel like I need to add more context to this because there is a lot of odd things out of this that make it appear that someone took them. Of the 6 babies, three are not hers. We once had another mommy duck who was attacked and killed by a raccoon. At that time, she had 9 babies...

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    If so, that makes me really sad. I want to make sure though. Can racoons eat four juvenile sized ducklings in one night? I just want to make sure before we finally end accept that as the story. We know something bad happened because the other ducks are sad, tired, and depressed.

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Even eating four in one sitting? That is the only thing that doesn't add up. We know when something is wrong when they are eaten one or two at a time. Four seems odd, which is why my dad thinks someone took them. All four were also the big ones, while the other two were the smaller ones that...

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    I just posted an attachment. This is the latest I have from the past weekend. The duck next to her is actually one of the two smaller ones that are still alive. So, they were slightly bigger than this one.

    Urgent Help! Four Baby Ducks Went Missing In One Day And It All Seems Odd

    Hey everyone! I don't know if there is anyone that help, but some thing grew out of concern in the last 2 days. We had a mommy and her 6 ducklings that would always come to my community and eat. We do not own them or anything, they are free to do whatever they want. They just happen to come to...

    Baby Ducks' Bills Changing Color! Need Help!

    Hi everyone! I see a female Muscovy duck with 9 babies, and recently I noticed that about 3-4 of the ducklings' bills are changing color. They are around 4-6 weeks old. They are darker colored ducklings so they all were born with dark purplish bills. But today, I see some of their bills are...
