So I went out and giggled ducklings today. So far I have 2 blue fawn quacking, other two.. verdict still out. lilac is quacking. (I'm naming her that regardless )
Blue Bibb and silver I'm pretty sure are drakes, have to wait and see.
Pastel is a girl! Chocolate is still peeping, but has to be a girl if she is chocolate for sure.
So.. All in all not a bad turn out!!!

So here is my solution for winter water. I've run a bird bath heater in there to keep the water from freezing.
I think I'm going modify it though and turn it the other way round they can drink from both sides. They are fussing over it a little bit since I have so many out there right now.
