ducks hatching...now what!

[chickenlover4us]

I have Moen ducks. Male and female. The female laid 9 eggs and are now hatching. I live in North East Wis and its been getting chilly at night here (50 degrees). Should I bring the babies in to put under a heat light or not?? She is sitting on her babies like a good mama but I'm just concerned. Help please!!! I'm new at this.

I'm new at this too but I think that they are warm enough under mama

Good luck with your hatch!!

Mamma usually knows best and will keep her babies warm and snug under her when it's cold. Leave them alone and let her handle it.

I agree, leave the ducklings with mama as long as she is caring for them. Sounds like she is doing well. Enjoy the babies! Oh and post pics!
