Got my ducklings!

[AnaD]

This is my first runner so I was wondering if it is normal for them to walk kinda weird (she shuffles and loses her balance), she is a day old so she hasn't had much practice, but my WH walks normally. She also rests on her butt after standing a little and seems a little less vigorous then the WH.
Now for pictures....
They chirrpped a lot in the bag Metzer had them in so I put them in my coat on our 3 1/2 hour trip home and they were mostly quiet from then on.

The trip to get them was beautiful! I will take any excuse to travel down the CA coast.

At home! The brooder seems so BIG with just two little ones in it.

ADORABLE!

And yes, runners are usually pretty clumsy as babies. It's so weird tho because they're fabulously graceful once they get their "sea legs".

I just got my babies in the mail today too! Muscovy from Hoffman Hatchery:

Babies are so much fun!

Beautiful ducklings, and beautiful pictures!

I would bet your concerns about the "too large" brooder won't last long, by the way!
