    Miracle (Merkel) is the little one in back. He was stuck to the shell. Amazing he is 1 week old today!! They were only about 1" tall when hatched. Cutest little ducklings I've ever seen.

    The one on your left is the Rouen, correct? The bigger one. Looks like a 2nd eye stripe coming in. I have 2 gray calls (4days old) and one had the second stripe at hatch and the other one is just coming in. I thought one of them may be something else. Like someone stated, the Rouen will grow...

    The latest babies!!! The one with yellow on its bill is a gray call I think. The one w 2 eye stripes may be a wood duck or a Laysan duck. I'm not sure yet. The eggs was laid in a ground nest, so I didn't think any were woodies, but they're the only ones I know that have 2 eye stripes. The black...

    I'd keep him separate for 2-3 days and watch him. Extra niacin (Brewers yeast) and peas can't hurt at all!! Anytime I have an injured duck they spend a few days at Uncle Tom's Ducky Dayspa!!! I.E.; the bathtub. Lol. Keep us posted please.

    I would pull those goslings as soon as they hatch and put Ina brooder. Then see what mama does. If you have an incubator, transfer all eggs to it if she stops setting.

    Just another option. I use a sigital temp controller and either a heating pad or 60 watt light bulb. The controller can be found on eBay for $10 or less. It's just a temp controlled switch that turns on the heat when temp gets too low and shuts it off at your set temp. Cheap and easy. I use it...

    Much better people on here to give advice than me, but I'll share what I do and wait to be corrected!! Lol. A box and light will work for a brooder just check temp and be absolutely sure it can't get too hot. Temp should be 90 to start 1 day olds and drop 1 degree a week until around 80.. Then...

    You know they always surprise me too! I thought that maybe when I separated the drakes date would be really upset and stressed out but after a day or two they seem to be a lot calmer now got along they weren't fighting and I just looked a whole lot better and happier This is voice text so read...

    You can just separate some drakes as well. I have 12 hens and 8 drakes so when the drakes go crazy I take the most aggressive 4 or 5 and pen them separately. I don't have a permanent pen but just wrap some plastic chicken wire fence around a couple trees. It works and the hens don't suffer.

    The two in the corner didn't make it through the night. :(. So sad. The other two are doing great but for some reason these 2 kept going back in the corner closer to the light.
