    Baby duck advice - Please help!

    These baby ducks are roaming around the neighborhood. People have been handling them and they are following everyone. Mom hasn't been around for a few days they said. Can they survive on their own or do they need to be taken to a wildlife conservation? I am just seeing them now and I'm worried.

    New & Need Help! Please!

    Hi all! Please help me identify my ducks Axl & Rosie. Are they both Magpie ducks? I ended up buying them from a cruel man feeding baby ducks to his snakes at a reptile show, I just couldn't stand the thought. Any information and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
