Ducklings!

[JustAChickenLoverOverHere]

So, we went to our local ace hardware store and we picked out 2 ducks... but there were 3. So, we had to take 3 or none. Three it was. We don’t know what breed they are. I was kinda hoping you guys could help because I have almost no experience with ducks. I’ll attach some pictures of the setup and them. We don’t know what sex they are either, but I’m entirely sure they are too young to tell. We were going to get chicks, but three ducklings was enough.

Maybe they are Pekin or Fawn and White Indian Runners. If they stand up vertical that means they are Runners.

Yep. They stand completely upright. Like little people lol. So cute.

Is my set up ok? I want to give them the best little duck life possible.

That means they are F&W Indian Runners.

Looks like a pretty good duckling setup for now. What kind of wood shavings are you using? They look kind of dirty

Do they have a heat lamp or a brooder heating plate?

I’m about to clean them out. I had them for chicks. They are pine shavings
