Baby Duckies!! Brooder questions

[Chicken poppy]

I use the vinyl textured shelf liner cut to fit and then pine shavings. The shelf liner is non-slip and can be washed.

I also have a piece that I put out on my desk when the little fluffies are out having playtime: it works well. I put newspaper underneath it on my desk.

she/he doesnt even look real! So beautiful

Haha -- Daffy's the largest, softest lump of muscovy ever!!! This is what he is like now: He has a thread bare chest as one of my pekin drakes thinks he should pull out Daffy's chest feathers to demonstrate he is alpha male [the Pekin is not alpha male and he's lucky that Daffy is good natured enough to, mainly, ignore the chest feather pulling].

I'm hoping to get some eggs to replace my flock in May. And @Chicken poppy you aren't the only one going to TSC just to "look" at chicks.

He's a muscovy -- a rescue from being alone in a mall parking lot at 9pm in the rain. See my earlier response with a photo of Daffy now

My friend recently got some chicks from the bantam ben and was asking me what breeds they could be. It's been so long (a year) since I've had baby chicks I was so tempted to pick up some myself.
