What a diffrence a day makes :)
« on: July 23, 2008, 12:47 »
Mummy took us out into the sun for 5 mins, so we told her to take some photo's so that everyone can see how we're doing.

Just one other thing Mummy has only ever hand reared geese before an didn't use a brooder for them she just took them everywhere she needed too in a kangaroo pouch next to her skin, we are living in an old fish tank with tin foil sides a towel on the bottom and a red lamp above us ( :shock: ) the temp in here is 32-33 deg C we're quite happy with this but Mummy  want's to know if this is going to be ok??

You seem to be doing everything right. They are happy ducklings  :)

Vember they are amazing, keep forgetting how much I love ducklings till someone reminds me. I found that I could (had to) reduce the temp really quite quickly as they were getting too hot. In the sunshine they just love being outside although didn't like a cool breeze at all.
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

So do you think they're going to be ok in the fish tank Kate? It is a big one??  
I stayed up the last 2 nights with them to keep an eye on them but could really do with some sleep tonight  :)

Sure they will be just fine. Mine lived in one of those big plastice storage boxes with a table lamp above them for a while. But out in the sunshine during the day if sunny and back in the box at night.

Oh that's fantastic thank Kate

When Crumb & Monty were little they slept in bed with me, but they were bigger an I couldn't squash them  :lol:
These too are soo tiny and been through so much I'd hate to crush them in bed  :lol:

So in the tank they can stay (phew)


Thanks Again
