    Raising and caring for ducklings

    Did it just happen once or is it poop now like that all the time? I'd just keep an eye on it if it's only happend once. Sometimes the poops are just different then other times. Drinking more water or heat or just growing. I wouldn't worry to much unless it keeps pooping like that.

    Raising and caring for ducklings

    Lol, well I still say your brave! I don't mind living in the middle of the woods with bears, raccoons, bobcats, ect. But rattle snacks.... That's where I draw the line!
