I am sure that this question has already been posted somewhere, but, I am really tired and cannot even keep my eyes open to look for it. Anyway, I was wondering at what age can I put my three week old ducklings outside. They are getting huge and I have a very large and deep Rubbermaid bin that they are in right now and they are stinking up the house really bad. Just over the last couple of days it has gotten almost unbearable and I change their bedding twice a day. They are currently getting their feathers in and can almost see over the top of the bin when they stand up really tall. "I have a feeling the ducklings I got may not have been day olds?" They are really big and have legs on them like tree trunks. In addition to this, they were trying to jump out of their holding pen while I was cleaning them. They can jump really high! I now have to put them in the shower stall to hold them and I turn the shower head on low and they play around in the water and give themselves a bath and they get drinks from it. They love it. So, in saying all of this any thoughts? I am going to try and get some sleep now so I will catch everyone on the flipside. Thanks for any help that you can give or suggest.
