Day Old Ducklings Enjoying A Swim

At only a day old my khaki campbell ducklings knew how to swim. It is amazing to see their instincts kick in and watch them as they happily swim around the bucket.

My husband’s uncle rears ducks on a large scale and they said that if a new born duckling doesn’t look too lively then a swim in some wather can help to revive the duckling.

  2. This is great! I cant wait to see mine hatch. Ive been up 4 times in the night again. Worrying about the poor little daffy getting out. Thanks so much for your inforamtaion. Its helped tremendously. After all this i dont think my friend is going to get it back after her hols. Its like having a baby waking in the night again i dont think im going to be able to part with it. She did say i could keep it if i wanted and i told her no. After seeing this video i think i am going to change my mind.
