Please Help with my pekin ducks. Natural incubation.

Food and water.

They could care less about the food. Both have had one bite. Lots of yelling, sleeping and knocking one of the two water bowls over.

Yeah, I had to teach my ducklings how to eat haha. I would drop some feed in the water and / or offer it to them from my finger. They should get the hang of eating in a day or two.

Also, make sure they have food and water available 24 / 7.

They are eating monsters I have nothing to worry about. Thirteen and FizzleBean are both female living their best life currently in the bathtub lol. Fizz is the fluffier one (two hand photo)

Sad Update:
They both passed away within 12 hours of each other. They were a month and a half, they did not grow bigger then 6-8days old.

Good News!
Karen is sitting on a new clutch of 14 after what felt like forever of waiting. But cross your fingers she sits the full term. Shes been really good for the last week and a half.

So very sorry you lost those precious babies. I hope Karen stays the course this time and ducklings hatch out!!
