Mama with them? congrats

Unfortunately Mama is not with them. It’s -32 F in MN now. They are nearly fully feathered, but I’m not comfortable putting them in the coop with the others (stays about 5 degrees in this weather) until it warms to above zero. They are in a comfy brooder in a 70 degree shop right now.

Came home to find 2 ducklings have hatched! They are safely in their brooder now. 2 more are working on hatching - I can hear them! So awesome!

Yeppers that's a baby duck. I can tell by that duck bill. LOL. Good luck with the rest.
