I just saw two new ducks under the mother. she is sitting 10 or 12 eggs. These two are so cute with their little heads sticking out and their eyes wide open looking all around. It is my first time to have ducklings and I have a couple of questions. Should I let her raise them or bring them inside to a brooder? Also, they are in a coop with two grown chickens, will the chickens hurt them? And lastly, what about the pond, could they drown? I had heard something about chickens or ducks drowning in their own water. Is this true? Any help will be appreciated. I'll keep you posted about more arrivals and try to post some photos. dewdrop
