I use puppy pee pads. The poop is just so small. I'm used to ducklings poop large and everywhere. Side of the brooder, over the broader on the wall. These are tiny little poops.
Have you checked under the sofa, the sideboard and on top of the fridge? 😂
 
"Our experiment was a success. We discovered that the music stimulated eggs were the first to hatch and had the highest hatch rate of 74%. The eggs stimulated with a recording of chickens clucking hatched second and had a hatch rate of 70%. Our control incubator with no stimulation only resulted in a 27% hatch rate."

(I was wondering about that because my room seems to be the most practical one to place the incubator in - and I usually have some music playing ... Aha - https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/playing-music-for-incubating-eggs.1481590/ )
 
I just had an April fools' surprise... While the ducks were away in the outside part of the orchard, a jackdaw came in and instead of just pecking at the food, it went straight into a kiddie pool and started bathing! Pranking me and the ducks.

I wonder when the ducks come back, will it be like Goldilocks and the bears -- "someone's been bathing in our pool..."
