4 Ducklings Vacation Question - NEW

[profam4]

We have recently adopted 4 ducklings living in the Midwest


They are a little over 4 weeks old and it is currently May 6th we have a camping trip scheduled June 14th and I am wondering with Pen created water and food will they be ok left a lone for a few days? Will they need someone with them at all times someone to check up on them or are they ok on their own completely?

Thanks

Our ducklings names are
Sunshine
Reeses
Bacon
Raven

Hi, I love your ducks names. We have a dog we have named Raven

To answer your question, you should absolutely have someone check on them. As everyone says here ducks are not only messy, but they go through a lot of water. You need to make sure there is always clean water available to them and just to make sure no predators are around. They don't need to be watched constantly, but I would say twice a day, morning and night if possible.

I would have someone stop in and check on them once a day. Even when animals have all they need, if something can go wrong it will
