Found baby ducklings!!!!

[Gray Farms]

Any suggestions on what I should do?
I wasn’t sure if they were old enough to be on their own yet.

No, they're not likely to survive on their own. I'd go ahead and raise them "if possible'' then either rehome or keep them.

I’m definitely ok with keeping them but aren’t they mean? I have 5 other ducks and I’m hoping they’ll all get along.
Thank you so much for the help!

No they aren't. Muscovys are very gentle, social, and trainable. They don't like being handles however and can seriously hurt a person if not handled properly. They are very strong and have large, sharp claws.
