I just got these feathered sweeties from @Nyla. They are almost a week old. 3 ducks and 1 drake - as of yet unnamed.
I have read so much and still feel like I know nothing!

Yes ducklings, goslings even my lil chicks I had last year love to cuddle with stuffed animals. I get them at the thrift store wash them and wash them again an again and again when I have babies in a brooder. Then I store them in the attic in a box for next time.

That's so sweet.

How are your babies today?

 

[Soon2BChixMom]

They ate their food sometime during the night or early this morning.
I added water to it, so will offer watered food and dry for a bit. Also, I bought chick electrolytes and probiotics, should I mix some up for them?

This pic is from yesterday. I will get some new ones today.

You should definitely mix some up. I always did 1/2 teaspoon of both powders per 1 quart.
Your going to love it when you let them go swimming! It's adorable!
