Duckling Thread!

Currently dying over here.....cuteness overload! Feeling a little jealous, as well. Better keep those babies safely locked up.

After downsizing my duck flock to 2 within the last couple years, I'm finally ready for more quackers. So very excited to add a Mallard pair and 4 Calls in 5 days. I will be sharing loads of pictures, but in the meantime, here are a few previous ducklings. All are either Call or Black East Indie -

Don't you just LOVE that runty Pastel Call? Poor little guy never grew properly, even into drakehood.

3 of our four hens use the same nest

Mine like to lay in the same spot too. My ducks lay their eggs in the shaving even some of my LF chickens will lay their eggs in too.

First hatches started yesterday in Neighbor Pam’s incubator. Now have 7 hatched with another 35 in-progress. Very exciting. Looks like my Saxony drake , Herman, produced at least 2 of the ducklings so far. My KC mix drake [Clyde] seems to be the the most productive so far. Here’s a few pictures, more to come. Very exciting!

Just contribute. They are right at 7 months old.
