duckling brooder question

[mamanaturale]

they actually still aren't bothering me. I am surprised because the chicks bugged me bad by this age. they are 4.5 weeks now. As long as i change their bedding every day, they aren't too bad at all.

Interesting, Wifezilla. I have only brooded rouens, so I had no idea there could be a difference. I change the bedding and mop up any excess moisture at least twice a day. Now my guys are spending days outside, so I only have to clean once a day.

Oh, well I did have to clean up their outdoor pen too, but somehow it doesn't seem so bad.
