But Mama Duck has had her babies out in the more open part of their shelter and they're all running around and seeming to do fine. Boy, having the mama raise them sure is a lot easier (and better for them, too, I believe) than having them in a brooder in the garage!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-42789124934624560422017-04-26T06:21:15.484-05:002017-04-26T06:21:15.484-05:00Sorry you lost the baby.

He had to go up a ramp out of the chicken house, down a ramp into the solarium, then up one more ramp to the outside. And why did he keep leaving his mother and the others??Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-66068727715063454232017-04-22T07:51:37.467-05:002017-04-22T07:51:37.467-05:00Thank you, Vera!Thank you, Vera!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-53878419408707504062017-04-22T07:51:26.177-05:002017-04-22T07:51:26.177-05:00Dawn - Thanks.
