That's so great, I bet your house ia really excited for these little fuzz babies. Yes, apple cigar vinegar is bought in gallons on our homestead. Not only for the livestock, but for us too! I'm intrigued about the milk you speak of...

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 clabbered milk is fresh milk left out to "clabber" it's a fermentation that makes a product slightly less tasty than yogurt. We buy local milk and had a little extra this week (winter quality is lower so we use less) so I clabber it (ferment it) for our pets. :) it gives the probiotic and protein value

Three weeks is ok

What type ice cream container? They are all cardboard cartons here in my Town. Please, Do you have photo, so I can look to get a few. Thank you.

Hi, thanks for reaching out! Good rule is when the down feathers are gone and adult feathers are in. Now, of course they can go out for little bits of supervised time, with access to the safe house. I like to use a gate to make a pen, right outside the house door. They will get used to the sounds and smells of your farm, and they'll be able to watch the other adults and learn from them. This will be good for your adult ducks as well, to get used to the new ducklings of the flock. Hope this helps, have fun! I LOVE those little fluff butts!

@@user-tm9sw7oo2g I thought my joke was going to go viral…I’m glad someone liked it

That's amazing!!

I've never used ducking starter myself. I would look at the ingredients/ nutritional content to see if there's enough niacin for them. Thanks for reaching out!

Are you feeding them straight brewers yeast? Or is it mixed with something? If the former, how long do you keel them on that feed before moving them onto something else?

Right? When I heard about it, I felt the same way! Now you can use it for the next time!

These particular ducklings are Khaki Campbells. Such nice ducks, right? TSC isn't very good about knowing the Turkey and duck breeds when they come in, ugh! Enjoy!!

If there's water, the ducklings will play. Always! Enjoy

I've never used those before, so I don't really have a good answer for you. I'm sorry. I would worry they would try and eat them, but I'm sure others have done it with success

Hi! You can continue to give it to them for the duration of their lives. I usually stop when they are fully feathered, supplement a couple times a week if desired

I like to use a biodegradable non toxic dish soap, or hot water and vinegar would suffice as well

Thanks for checking us out! In the brooder we use a paint roller tray from any hardware store, with the metal grate on top. Once in their house, we cut a hole in the floor with hardware cloth to cover it to allow water to fall on to the ground. Hope that makes sense, good luck! Feel free to ask questions any time!

Hi there. I usually gave them 1 tsp of yeast to 1 cup of feed. Just make sure the feed is not medicated, it's really harmful to the little fuzzheads.

I've never used them, but that's not to say you couldn't.

What a great aspiration at the age of 7, wow! Really when they're young, you just keep filling their food, and keep food in there until they go to their outdoor home. When our ducks went out, they were fed twice a day, more if needed, they'll let you know! Good luck!!

Hi there! I'm excited for you, enjoy them! I recommend pine shaving from your local farm/ feed store. It's better for getting wet as those ducks are going to make a mess! Go to your local hardware store and purchase a paint tray with the metal drip grate. Place the waterer on top and it should help catch the water mess they will create. I like to give them apple cider vinegar in their water every day to boost their immune system. Pick them up every day and they will be your friend once grown. Good luck!

You have good grammar for a 10 year old.

Hi there! I use ACV for over all health of my animals and family. It's a great way to heal the gut, kills bacteria, healthy skin, and improves heart health

Hi! Honestly, I don't know the answer to that. I would do a little research on that, I've only used the one made for birds

I would hold off on bringing them outdoors for long periods of time, until they're adult feathers have come in. Mine are out all day now, but they go in the house at night for warmth and protection.

We don't mix our own, but plan to start this year! I'll do a video on that once we have it here! Right now, we're feeding them DuMOR organic 16% feed from TSC.

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 thank you!

No way, aren't they amazing?!? Poor little orphaned duckling. Are you keeping or rehoming? Good luck with your fuzz baby!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 They are the best! I was going to keep him and raise him up to be a support animal but Ive come to the conclusion that he needs to be with his own. He misses others ducks and nothing will change it. Ive got a friend coming to pick him up. Hes got a farm and ducks!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 But when I took it in, I felt emotions that I thought I would never have the privilege of feeling. Some kind of paternal/maternal emotions. It was so overwhelming I stayed on the verge of crying from this mix of emotions. The mother was killed by a cat I think.

Same here lol 😂😭

😢🦆😭

We've only had Turkey poults and ducklings at once. We kept them separated just in the beginning when they're in the brooder. I worried about the bill/beak issue between the two birds.

Ours don't fly very far, but if you're worried you can clip their flight wings. They don't feel a thing that way!

We got ours a few days old from a hatchery that ships ducklings.

It's just a normal size heat lamp. I keep it on them until they have their adult feathers, and depending on weather temps. Definitely on during the nights if they're cold.

I'm so sorry I didn't see this earlier. Did your furry baby make it? Usually they're good for 3 days after hatching, they've still got the yolk to live on. Hope everything is well!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 YES!! Thanks for responding ! yes she survived and she is healthy.

@@amazingducks8841 that's so amazing, I bet you're ecstatic!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 Yes!

In the small waterers I will put maybe a Tbsp and more as the waterers get larger. Really I only put in a splash, but I know it's easier to start with exact measurements.

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 thanks

I like to use organic raw with the Mother included, and I add 2T/gallon

These ducks in the video are Khaki Campbell ducks. Smaller ducks, excellent layers!

To start, follow the chick starter bag directions. There is a duckling starter, just not where we're located. We just use chick starter with a higher protien. I prefer organic, but as long as it's not medicated, all should be fine. Add in brewer's yeast every meal, I like the yeast with garlic and echinacea added in for health benefits. Also apple cider vinegar in water. Follow age guidelines, about 18 weeks and they can switch to a layer feed. Good luck! Let me know if you have any other questions.

How come you don't feed them medicated feed

It's a way to ward of illness and build up their immune system.

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 awesome thank you for info!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 i lowered my cholesterol from 222 to 141 in 1 week with apple cider vinegar

We have ours living with chickens and a Turkey!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 so no bullying when they are young?

@@ainthatquanquan we keep them all together in a house, but for the first couple weeks we keep them separated with a gate/ fence. That way everyone can see one another, but can't fight

Brewer's Yeast for Backyard Chickens & Ducks with Echinacea, Garlic, & Oregano (4 pounds) a.co/d/8ID2Ebl This is what we've always used, it's AMAZING! Hope this helps, thanks for reaching out and watching our video!

I don't know that I would, but if that's the only thing you can get, it's okay. Just watch that they don't try to eat it! Have a great day!

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 yes they’re not eating thankgod and one more thing i wanna ask how to give them peas like boiled peas or raw

@@gadgetsworld5253 how old are they? If they're small, you may need to smash the peas first. If they're older, fresh or frozen peas are great.

@@apositivealtitudehomestead8964 they r 1.3 weeks old

@@gadgetsworld5253 i would wait until they're about 4 weeks old to introduce peas

Nope, organically raised since we got them

Brewer's yeast takes care of that
