Aquarium heaters may get hot to the touch. Don't want to burn little webbies.

Ducks don't do well on wire like that. It will cause issues with their feet.

If you use hardware cloth, instead of chicken wire, it is fine. That's what my Call Duck cages are made of and I never have foot problems. My nesting box is solid wood bottom, but some people put wire in the bottom of that too.

I just found your topic and am excited to see how your babies progress. I got show ducks this Fall but am waiting till the Spring to incubate ducklings. It's too cold here to have baby ducklings right now.

Your black water pan in the coop is perfect. After the first few weeks, I leave a hose dripping into the water pan 24/7. They spit food into the water so it still gets dirty, but the constant drip will keep it from smelling.

Thank u please do follow if u like.I’m thinking of attaching football large goalpost as their run on the soft grass.They’ll be happy and protected from the tabbys there once they grow up.Th3 hatching awaits,only 12 days left.

Well hopefully the OP has small ducks and not full sized ones, because these types of cages are not recommended for full sized ducks.
