Do you have the mama? what old are they? I am planning on keeping my ducklings till 5-6wks then selling the ones i don't want they are with their mama and have been going in the pools since about a week old.

Hatcheries sell them as day olds. I wait until they are off starter feed to advertise them for sale. This way the buyer doesn't have to buy a 50lb bag of duck starter for 2 or 3 birds.

They can go in the water right away. Just make sure they can get back out on their own or only let them swim when you can supervise.
