Pellets for ducklings?

Pics
Here is the first image of my duck's offspring, hatched by a broody hen:

I know blurry picture, but it was almost dark and my neighbor has an old phone.
All six survived a frosty night 6°C (21F) under their mom and are alright.
I will visit them 2morrow and make tons of pictures…

My goodness, they are so sweet! No doubt nice and warm under mom.
The little one in front looks like possible fawn and white?

They love their little mirror and introduced them to their bigger water dish last night. They were so excited to climb up and stick their whole head in, jump off and run a lap and repeat :)
Oh, I almost forgot...the darker one is Melvin and the lighter is Hopper.
 
We have a big mirror as well, maybe I'll try it out with the adult ducks today :)
Was thinking about giving the babies a little tray of water and some lettuce, is it still too soon?
The nice thing about their brooder is that it's big enough to let them splash around a bit in there. Lol, Donna and I were both in the brooder with them when she came to visit the babies.
