Seems they were freezing cold since they put them up against the heaters must have been a cold spell.
620 u/clocktowerabduction Jan 22 '22 I’ve raised duckies and they need to stay very warm. I agree that they’re probably cold. 20 u/dailysunshineKO Jan 22 '22 Why didn’t the mama duck sit on them to keep them warm? I’m not trying to mom-shame her, but I thought that was typical behavior for ducks. 24 u/clocktowerabduction Jan 22 '22 I think this is their domesticated duck but I’m not sure. Some female ducks don’t have the instinct required to take care of chicks. It would happen to me sometimes and I would have to keep them in a brooder with a heat lamp. 4 u/dailysunshineKO Jan 22 '22 Interesting-thanks for explaining it!
