Thank you so much for all of your help & quick responses. :) I really appreciate it.

They're all doing great! Currently, they are snuggling under their heat lamp. Just a quick question, though, when I do eventually put them outside for the fall/winter, should they have a heat lamp? If so, how should I set up a heat lamp outside of my home?

I would agree with that. We kept them outside when we got them at the end of the summer while it was still nice out, but the incoming fall weather has got me a little more wary to do so. I'll definitely still keep an eye out for sunny days to take them outside.

Yeah, we moved our old Khaki ducks to a kiddie pool once they outgrew their bin. The tricky part is keeping them in the pool, as they always seem to find a way to escape haha. We had to wrap chicken wire around the kiddie pool last time, I'll have to look into the appliance box thing for this time.

Their enclosure is two bins with an opening between them. One of the bins has their food and water and the other is just bedding with the heat lamp shining down on it. (Sorry about the poop, but I'm sure you've seen lots of it :lol:).

Maybe it was sleeping, although I've never seen any of my ducklings in that position before.

Seems to be doing okay. :) All of the ducklings are cuddling together atm so I'm sure that it's plenty warm.

Thank you both for your responses. The little duckling seems to be feeling much better & is drinking its electrolyte water. I just got so panicked when I saw the poor thing face down in its bedding. :fl Here's to hoping for a full recovery for the little guy/gal.

Hello there, I'm new to this website. I have 5 Silver Appleyard ducklings that are about a week and a half old and one of them is noticeably smaller than the rest. A few hours ago, I gave them a bath in some cool water and changed their bedding. After their bath, I put them back into their...
