When can baby ducklings swim without mother?

[OkieChickenGal]

I ordered 6 ducklings from Metzer farms, they are 2 days old, when can they start swimming?

Nice warm water and start with water up to top of legs then deeper as they get accustomed to the water. Always make sure they don’t catch a chill.

Yep and straight to the heatlamp afterwards

New duckies in the water is the best part!

Once their 8 weeks old tossem out and get new cuties again
