Fostering Ducklings?

[RareFeathers]

my friend, a great breeder, had 4 scovey runner crosses, and gave them to me for free. i have a brahma bantam hen who hatched out a chick this morning, and the ducklings are 4 days old. if i slip them under her, will they accept her as their mom and vice versa?

thanks

I dont see why you cant try, just stay there and watch them to make sure nothing happens. (well thats what I would do). I had a hen take in a 1 1/2 week old chick when she hatched out her chicks.
