Calling lots of different wildlife sanctuaries and stuff tomorrow! Tried with a few when we first got them last week but nobody was interested in helping out or taking them on :/

My goodness I thought that was what they were for, hope you can find someone to help. Hows the lil one doing today?

Not any better but not any worse either :/ the lil guy is so fast and seems to be bigger and stronger by the day! The mess they manage to make is insane!

Getting bigger and stronger are 2 good signs. yes they are messy but Amiga gave some good links for ideas to help there.

Just trying to figure out if it would be better to keep them or find a wildlife place for them to go to. I'm so worried that a big wildlife business is just gonna give up on two little sickly looking ducklings :/ I want the best for them!

Yes!! Finally found a lovely man who will take them in, he has a load of little ones he just rescued today who will be their buddies and I think they have a broody chicken who let's them all sit under her and he sounds really nice and experienced! Ahhh so relieved and happy but I'm gonna miss the little guys! Thanks for all the help!

Are you taking them to him? might be better so you can check out his set up. Are you in London UK?
