My 2nd Duck Hatch!

Congratulations! Hopefully, 25 will feel better after a little nap. They are certainly a fighter to have made it this far!

The last 2 ducklings spent the night in the incubator and seemed healthy this morning so I put them with the rest, but I’ll keep an eye on them

The last 2 ducklings. I’m not sure if they are too light colored to be chocolate.

The whole gang. I’m not happy with how wet they’re getting from their waterer.. it’s a Tupperware with holes cut in the lid. Maybe I cut the holes too big. But they do seem to be doing a good job of going under the heat plates when they start getting cold.

Such precious babies. When do they go to their new homes?

I’m thinking of letting them go around a week old, maybe 6 days.. I just want to make sure they are strong and healthy before they go. I know if I keep them that long they’ll probably outgrow the kiddie pool.
I’m going to keep 4-6

My favorite duckling is so tiny but she’s super active and eating a lot so I don’t think anything is wrong with her.

They are sooo cute

I cant stop staring at their perfect little webbed feet, their bright eyes, and their shiny little bills! They are absolute perfection

This one is named Eagle. It’s egg number was 39, so I thought of launchpad 39 A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Apollo 11 launched from there

The coloring is beautiful
