Arkansas folks speak up.........

I just found 11 baby woodducks - can't be more than a few days old, walking down Main Street in my town. The momma has been hit by a car and is dead. I have all the babies in a large box with towels in the bottom. I went and bought game bird crumbles, and a quart size plastic poultry waterer. They don't seem to be interested in the food or water - they are just jumping and crying....I had pet ducks up until about a month ago - pekins, mallards, skovies - I know nothing about wood ducks....what do they sleep in? Mine used to sleep in a dog house.....inside a covered pen.

Possession of wood ducks is a federal felony. You need to contact AFG at 800-364-4263 and ask for a Migratory Bird Rehabilitator. Then voluntarily turn the ducklings over to them. If you continue to possess them beyond this and are caught you can be fined and/or imprisoned.

Thank you - I will do that now.
 
I live in Camden Arkansas which is in South Arkansas. Are there any BYCers close to me? I currently have Buff Orpington, White Silkie, Chocolate Muscovy, and Mille Fleur d'Uccle. I am looking for several breeds of chickens and ducks. If you are close to my area please message and let me know what you have.
