My broody duck hatched baby chicks :)

She went broody so I put three eggs under her. She hatched all three on Fathers Day. She has been taking Great care of them. It is just adorable. I have heard Muscovies make great mothers but up until now had never seen it for myself

How adorable!

I wonder what's she's going to think when they don't follow her into the water!

Shes in the area without the pool. She has not left the hen house. They have access to food and water but no pool. I am watching and will take them away and into brooder before she goes back onto the coop with their play pool. Although this one muscovy doesn't ever want to swim. But then I have one that is always swimming so perhaps depends on the duck ?
