Our ducklings arrived today!

So, our ducklings arrived today, and they're so cute! All 12 (3 males and 9 females) of them were alive when we picked up the box from the post office, so that was great as well! They've only been in the brooder for a few hours, and it already seems that they love their new home. Here's some pictures.









I've also started a youtube channel where I will be documenting the ducks first year of life day by day called The Quack Chronicle. And I'll be starting a thread on BYC for it as well called "Our Ducks' First Year!". I hope you'll also be excited to see our baby ducklings grow up into adult ducks!

Do the ducklings have a deep enough water dish where they can fully submerge their whole head? (It's hard to tell in the pic). They need to be able to clear their nares/nostrils out under the water.
