Wet keets just into the brooder last Sunday...
One duckling out and another to come, Tuesday afternoon.
Two ducklings ready for the brooder, Wednesday.
All getting along well. :) This morning...
Last Saturday we had five keets born... Baby Guinea Fowl that is... Then on Tuesday we had two ducklings born late in the afternoon...
At first I was wondering if there would be a problem with the two sets being in the one brooder but so far there has not been any problems. Last night one of the keets did die though which is very sad... First time that once we have had something hatch that it has died... It looked always so sleepy and wasn't feeding properly either... In the end you can get them to the food and water but you can't make them consume it... Sad either way...
One thing that I noticed when Joshua took photos this morning of the babies is that his favourite duckling has a fish sign on the back of it... How unusual...
They are all soooo cute and so quiet, which I appreciate seeing they are in the bathroom next to my bedroom :)
Cheers Damaris
