Broody chicken hatched ducklings

Sounds like you have a good plan and a juggling act to boot.
Keep us updated on how they are all doing and of course with lots of pics.


Well they're two and a half weeks old now and growing like weeds! We created their new run and 6.00am yesterday morning lifted her little hut into it with mamma and ducklings inside and opened the door. We'll take the old little hut out when she takes to the new one. She really has turned out to be a good foster mum. :)

That looks great, and it amazes me how those mamas don't see any difference in those babies not being chicks, they are her babies and she is their mama. so precious.
Thanks for updating. Wait till they climb into something to play in the water she may have heart failure. lol

I put this tray of water in today. They've had a great time splashing around and are now having a rest in the shade. Mamma didn't seem bothered at all. :) I've put bird netting over the top cos we've got some nesting seagulls who keep attacking everyone!

Well good she must be pretty laid back then. Good for you on the netting sea gulls will take ducklings and goslings and baby chicks etc. you'll have to post some pics of them splashing around I bet they had a blast.
