Thanks I love em too they are sorta like my therapy ducks I spend most of my time and attention on them and then my girlfriend gets the attention some time hahahaha. Thank you all so much for all the useful info I'm constantly changing how I take care of them with the information I'm given. I got rhea niacin the other day that isn't flush free or time released and this weekend I'm getting them some grit as I've heard that'll help a little with the sahvings.

Here yah go this I literally just took haha they still nibble on the towel but they've been losing interest as they've been eating more. I had a bottom of a water bottle that I was putting their water in but they kept knocking it over so I cut a hole in a 1 gallon jug and they are getting used to that.

@DuckMadness They are adorable.

Thank yah I was torn today as I went back to the store I bought them from and the had black Swedish I was tempted to buy 2 more but I was scared the other 2 would try and hurt them as they've gotten huge the past couple of days. Also UPDATE. I went from shavings to a towel but they seemed to be sitting alot so I figured the towel wasn't enough cushion so I bought Timothy hay for their bedding. I figure it's long enough that they can't eat it and if they get bits of it tha it's just dried grass they seem to love it so far and they've stopped trying to eat it.

I dunno what to do about these terrors of mine, they eat puppy pads, which I'm certain is bad for them. Shavings or oatmeal won't work on carpet even with the strongest vacuum, and doing laundry every single day is exhausting!

They would have to be introduced slowly over several days before they would be able to stay together most likely.

Yeah

That was my problem. I don't have a separate broader for them and I don't have anything to make one with. I only got the one now. Also I think one of my ducklings is starting to feather a little bit on its back. It looks wet but when I check it it's dry but looks wet. Almost scraggly looking.

Well that just means we need more pics so we can verify your right about seeing some feathers starting.

This just means we want to see more pics period.

Will do for sure haha. You can really see them coming in after they get wet from bath time. They almost look like they've been plucked lol but it's a cute look somehow hahaha. I've grown up around dogs, cats as well as horses and my god do ducks grow fastest of them all haha. Love these two the best decision I've ever made buying them. I'll post a pic tomorrow after bath time. So you all can see sorry I haven't been as active got a lot going on. Take care everyone.
