handling

[lorraine83]

so i think my ducklings that have been rescued are about 5 weeks old.
what i want to know can you handle them to much.
as they are so small they sleep in side at the momen after some great advice given to me by you guys on runday
then in the morning while i do the school run i put then in there home but shut off the run.
then wheni am homei but them in there run for a while then when i go to school they go back in the house outside. then when home from school we spend loads of time having cuddles and today we are gonna let them paddling as have just got a paddling pool for them.
but when we are having cuddles it is for a long time. i offer them water while we are snuggling and some treats

Once they get older, they aren't as keen for snuggle time so snuggle all you want.
Are they house ducks?

How'd you come up with 5 weeks they look younger than that to me.

Snuggle up because soon they will hit that age where they won't want to.

at the moment while the weather is so nice in the day they are enjoying the sun shine but the come in at night. we need to make there outside area more secure. as we resued these and werent planning on ducks we are not really prepared

i was speaking to someone else and she got me to measure them i may start a new thread and try and get a picture of them standing and see what all you guys think
