The Quack Shack

[Luv Ducks]

Look like only 2 weeks maybe 3. No real feathers yet. Don’t let them get too cold. They should have access to some heat after swimming.

That's funny I didn't see your post and I responded with the same guess you did.

So cute!! Where is the mommy?

Incubator babies. I am the mommy
My little granddaughter got to have one hatch in her hand and we all stood around so awe struck by the moment no one even took a photo!
It was so sweet.

I wish you had my very randy Khaki drake. He has to go. I have naked neck hens. He is extremely rapey.

I'm going to post him on next door and see what happens.

Can you believe the black one and the yellow one have the same parents. The little one has same dad but different momma.

So is our older drake apparently, the last 10 days or so it's just ducks running away screaming all day long...

Today duck house #3 was completed to house the Welshies of which we intend to keep 5.

This liberated the apple crates in the garage so the little 3 week old Khakis can move in.

I don't think we'll repeat the exercise of hatching another batch of eggs directly after the first one ... It's just too much work with 2 generations growing up with different needs, ducks in the morning, ducks in the evening, ducks all over the day. Would work if we had nothing else to do but as it is, in the future we'll take a month or so between the batches.

Today the babies go outside. I hope the snakes don't kill them.
