Help! first time hatching!

I hatched a turkey with my ducks and the ducks seemed pretty mean to it. But I only had the one turkey with 4 ducks. So you might be ok with multiple chicks and ducks. But best to be prepared in case they don't get along. I ended up buying 2 chicks to put with my turkey. They still live together and are best buddies.
 
Ok. Last year I bought 16 chicks and then a week later we bought 12 ducks. It's was wild and wet so the ducks got their own box. But when we moved them to outside they shared a coop for a while
 
After getting up at 6 to check on them I fell asleep for a little over an hour. The humidity had dropped to 50% and the other silkie egg is (un)zipping. I hope it's ok
 
I'm currently not home but my brother is watching the bator and chicks and ducks. 3 chicks and 3 ducks in brooder and 3 ducks in bator, along with a chick. More could of hatched since he last contacted me.

OH how exciting WOOO HOO!!! Have you been informed yet?

Oh boy, I should probably break the news to you, Lets see, Hum, OK here it goes.

Ducks are Messy. LOL....

Also, I would like to suggest, no swimming lessons for at least one week, they have to produce there own oils since they don't have a mama duck to put the oils on them, they need time to create there own. They can get there feet wet but that's about all that I would allow them to do.
