So, I have some questions

[Kevin565]

Yeah I haven't ever paid attention when we go to the feed store. Because if I do, I will be in there for hours... That usually gets me in trouble with the wife.

So, I haven't decided on what to do for water to start out with. But, we are going to have a pond for them to swim in and use wattering nipples on 2 or 3 5gallon buckets when they make it out of the brooder.

Just make sure the waterer isn't too big because ducklings will try to swim in it if it is.

Well should I just start them with the watering nipples from the get go?

The nipples are an idea, but how are they going to wash their heads to avoid eye, ear and sinus infections? This is an open question not just for Arkantex, but for anyone who uses the watering nipples with ducks.

So use watering nipples and have a "bath" of sorts?

That sounds like it would work great
