Is your brooder warm?

The incubator has done its job It does not need to stay in there anymore.
The quicker she starts eating and drinking the better.

Yay! Congrats on the hatch Hope the little won’t be too lonely while you hatch out some ducklings for it.
Looking forward to more pics when it’s out of the bator

Yep, he has just been moved in the brooder, I am a little worried cause I haven't seen him stand up for prolonged periods of time, just a few secs, so I can't see if the bedding I have put for his brooder (paper towels) has enough friction with his feet. I wouldn't wanna cause him leg problems.

Welp, nevermind what I said above, he is now standing and eating haven't seen him drink yet but I showed him where the water is at so he should be able to find it once he is thirsty
