One duckling has been born this morning and it's so big compared to the hen chicks. Mother hen however will defend it to the death as I found out earlier! I have had to move them into a shed as the other hens don't seem too friendly towards mother and baby. Graham is in the throes of making them a shed but has run out of wood. it looks as though they might be wild ducks in which case we won't need a shed at all ,they will be off as fast as their little legs will carry them. Photo's later. sheila x
