| My neighbor and ger son just came over with a duckling in their hands, he said it was "lost". I persuaded them to leave it with me (these are the type of people who seem to kill a dog every year). They brought it to me because I'm an RVT and have raised orphaned kittens, puppies,squirrels and song birds. Ducks are a little new to me though. I'm going to try to find a rescue for him, but until then, I want him to be comfy. He was hot and thirsty, so a swim in the dogs pool made him very happy! He is about 4-6" tall, pale yellow and has a fluff mohawk. I'll try to get a pic of him once he destresses a little bit. I have a pen built for squirrels that is empty right now with floor space of about 6'x4' and can rig up some water for him. It's completely escape and predator proof so it should suffice. What about bedding? I have plenty of bird seed, both small and large seed, anything else he might care to eat??
Thanks so much

| JoJo can you get ahold of some non medicated chick starter? He's not really geared to eat seeds. Also he would probably enjoy some lettuce, spinach or other leafy greens. My ducks are 1 month old tomorrow and that's what they eat. They also enjoy earthworms. Lots and lots of water to drink, dunk their heads in and swim in! Ducks need to have their food close to their water dish cause they take a mouthful of food and dash to dunk it in water before the swallow it.
Also keep him out of drafts. I understand it's really hot in Texas now but baby ducks need to be at about 85 degrees till they get older. He looks pretty young. I sure hope he was really lost and not waiting for his parents to get back with a meal for him!

| Thanks so much. I cant get a hold of any starter until tomorrow. How about broccoli? I have lots of that, and I can go get some lettuce and spinach as soon as traffic dies down. It's about 97 outside right now, and about 85 inside (just got my AC fixed) I have set him up in the squirrel pen with the top of a bird bath full of water. He's a bold little thing. The kid who found him said he was in a drain pipe at one of the many man made ponds in our planned community. There is usually a mix of domestic and wild ducks that inhabit these ponds, so i don't know if he was lost or just waiting for mom.
What about nesting? I know wood ducks like nesting boxes, but this little guy looks domestic? I really am at a loss when it comes to ducks. Where do they sleep? LOL |

| When I first got mine they went into a brooder. Basically a plastic tote bin . I lined the bottom with shelf liner. That kept it from being slippery (they can get splayed legs permanently if they don't have a firm surface to walk on). It was cold here at the time so I had an 85 watt red spotlight on them all the time to keep them warm. That was it. I had a small bowl of water (about 3" diameter) and had to refill it several times a day. I had another small bowl for the food.
Try chopping the broccoli on the fine side and offer a little to see if he'll take it. If you can dig up some earthworms those were very popular with my bunch! Sounds like the little guy wasn't lost. Mom probably left him there to wait for her (poor thing).

| Are his eyes pink or is it just the reflection? If they are not, he's definately domestic. Most wilds have coloration to help them hide. His legs and bill seem awfully light even for a domestic.
If you have an area where you can let him graze and bug in the grass for a few hours each day, he will love it. otherwise the unmedicated chick starter is good when supplimented with greens.
straw is good for the floor as he will throw water all over and it drains better than shavings. I give my babies a low pan with water for them to splash around all the time. It gets gross quickly though from the food.
I have a wonderful Rouen that has raised a couple of batches of orphans for me. They all fly away in the fall and leaveher behind, but she doesn't seem to mind. |

| No his eyes aren't pink, its just the light. There is something odd about his head and neck shape too. Not completely ducky in my novice eye, but of course that doesn't mean anything. He has settled down in a large dog kennel for the night with water, lettuce and broccoli. He was out in the squirrel pen and he get some 6 leged protein, so I will put him back out for a while tomorrow while I can keep an eye on him. I'll make a trip to the feed store in the AM and get some supplies. I am still trying to find a home for him though

| That's a tough call. The mother may not recognise him as hers right away and drive him off. When I intrigate ducklings, I usually grab a couple of the ones that the mother already has and put them together for a day or so and then when I give them back, she doesn't know which is the new ones, even if it is a little diffrent in age or appearance.
If it is a large pond with several ducks (not just one pair), you can always return him when he is older and about full grown. They grow really fast. He should be ready in a couple of months. |

| The duckling looks like a white ... maybe buff but probably white Pekin or mostly Pekin w/ some Runner as a potential %. It can only get cuter as time passes ... a funny-cute looking duck for sure. I have several Swedish Blue ... and they also come in Buff ... great layers too. |

| Gosh, he's a funny looking little thing! I think that's what makes him so cute. He definately looks like there will be a crest, but he doesn't have the bowling pin carriage. Maybe he's some sort of a cross. It's that platypuss bill that I love.
Why can't you keep him? I had my Quackers for over a year before I got any other ducks. He has always been happy with a kiddy pool, a yard to roam and some corn. He was actually a rescue. A landlord found him abandoned in an apartment bathroom. We figure he had been there for at least a week or more. He's fat and happy now though with two females. (and about 25 babies so far). |

I left word at the feedstore to have the duck lady to call me, she raises Swedish Blues and some other ornamental ducks, so she might be interested in him. I really want to find him a nice ducky place, he is such a little charmer! |

| Good luck with your duck. We have had to raise a few of the wild ones from our back yard a few times and the longer they have been with the hen, they harder they seem to be to raise. We have a clutch of 8 right now that are doing great. They got too big for the bathtub so now they are at the barn in an empty stall with a feed tub for a pool.

| Thanks to TF I found this thread. Yes I am in Conroe but we dont have ducks just chickens. We do have a pond though :)
My daughter saw the duck pics and said "I want a duck"
We had ducks when I was a kid and we had one that didn't hatch as fast as the others and the mother left it. We put it in a seperate pen and took care of it but one day when we were gone the mother or father duck got into the pen somehow and killed the little duckling. I was so upset.
I showed the pics to my husband and he said sure we'll take it. So if you still have it ,and want it to have a home it will be spoiled rotten in, then let me know where we can meet. We live southeast of Conroe close to Grangerland. Though at the moment we don't have any other ducks, it won't be lonely and would be over loved. We have more than 50 chickens and they are spoiled rotten thanks to my kids, so the duck would get spoiled as well. |

Will you be in Conroe anytime today or this evening while your out? Perhaps we could meet somewhere in the middle. 1488 is a mess right now isn't it. It will be nice when they get it finished but in the mean time it can be frustrating. We could wait till Monday if you want to hang onto him that long. My kids are excited about the prospect of having a duckling to spoil. |

LOL anyway today is not looking good for me. And 1488 is more than a mess, it can take 30 minutes to go 5 miles down the road! Monday will be fine. I have some crumble for him and got him some meal worms and grit, so he ok for a few days. I will Dmail you in a little bit, as soon as I dry off.

It got into our big chickens pen earlier and scared them. Too funny to see all those big chickens on the other side of the pen scared of a little bitty duck. We will have to watch when he is out following us so he doesn't visit them again. Right now he is sitting on my daughters lap.

Today the kids were in the pool and I was sitting outside letting him run around in the grass and he heard the kids and started running to the pool trying to find them. He would go sit right by it. Its above ground so he can't get in but he could hear them and wanted to be close. Too cute. |

| We have a fence around the garden already. He won't get to visit the tomatoes on his own that's for sure :) |

| Heck you should let him jump in the pool with the kids! Mine jumped into the water almost as soon as they arrived here from the hatchery. No problems at all. They would run back under the light and dry off. Then as soon as they were dry they'd jump back in the water again! LOL They kept that up till they were tuckered out and would go to sleep after drying off.

| True jojo I haven't thought about that since I don't treat the water in any way. I read somewhere that ducks keep the water free of algae but I know mine drag mud in! Their pool is only for them.

| Our pool has no chemicals it is run on a salt generator. The only thing that goes into it is salt and baking soda for the PH. We keep an algae bar in the skimmer as well. But I don't think it would be something I'd want to put him in just in case. He seems to enjoy sitting in the grass close by with his water bowl pecking around in the grass and chirping.
Yesterday he followed me around so much by the time we brought him in for the night he was tuckered out and sat in his little nest quiet for quite a long time. Then about the time we wanted to go to bed he started chirping and decided it was time for a late night snack before the lights went out. |

| Yes, he is truly spoiled, just like all our animals. I don't think he knows hes a duck. I think he thinks he is just one of the kids, LOL I can't get over how much he LOVES tomatoes. He will scarf them up. He eats the chick/duck starter really well also. |
