OK, is the pekin sound like "Pecking" or "Peeking"?

We brought the ducks inside through the front door a few minutes ago... and the geese watched us. Now they are standing at front door screeching! I am tempted to take the goslings outside (in dog kennel) to meet... but it is sunset and temps are dropping fast.

Sometimes. Just keep dipping their bills now and then into the water. Once you find poop, your good. They may not eat much the first few days.

I still cant get these babies to eat or drink. Is this normal

Marty i think tey have both pooped. And i have been dippin bills in water. Just witried since they r soooo tiny

If the digest dract is active, thats very positive. They are just little, like you said. Soon, they will be as piggish as even the biggest ducks.

Hi Cocoa! Yeah, I eat what I get from the grocery store or if I decide to be a little more daring I will get some at the farmers market. LOL I laugh in the face of danger!

HaHaHa ~ Reminds me of the Lion King !
