Working on my own Diaper pattern. The problem is... I don't have my ducklings yet, so i don't know what size to make them. Can anyone give me an estimate on how big a duckling will be the first week of it's life? Like... Baseball? Tennis ball? Orange? I just need a basic idea. thank you !!
 
It depends on the breed. Mallards and call ducks for example are smaller at that age than standard domestic ducks. What breeds are you getting?
 
I have never had muscovies so I can't tell you how big they are at one week, sorry :(. I have a buff, a magpie, two mallards and two cayugas. Muscovies are bigger than the standard domestic duck, and mine were about the size of a tennis ball I think. I hear muscovies are a lot of fun though! Hopefully someone who owns muscovies will post something. Good luck :).
