I recently got 2 ducklings! They are really young... Like just under 3 days old! So they obviously do not have their adult feathers or the oil that they need in order to not sink immediately. I was not planning on letting them swim yet, but for future reference... when is it ok to let baby ducks take 3 minutes or so ( I am not sure how long to let them swim) to swim around in the small bathtub or kiddie pool?
Extra information relating to my question:
It would not be filled very high at all, just high enough for them to enjoy it but not drown or get injured or exhausted from paddling.
They would always be supervised and watched carefully! And they would be dried off well and placed under the heat lamp!
