My least favorite job is swamping out the coop. These little guys don't want to go outside and they are soiling their hay every other day. Plus, my auto waterer developed a leak, so now I have real mess. I put the auto waterer back outside, but the two small regular waterers that I have don't contain enough to get them through the day. Man those ducks eat and drink alot!
I left the babies inside while I cleaned, shooing them from one side to the other. They were a bit distressed, but we made it work. I can't believe how cold it has been. I turned their heat lamp back on because I was concerned about the temp drop. One of my ducks flipped over again. Poor thing was just laying there wriggling his little butt looking at me. It's supposed to be a bit warmer tommorow. I may try to shoo them outside in the morning based on advice I got from some of the Whizbangers.
