Hello Francis. Thanks for watching these videos and for your comments over the past months. I now have a web site (with live nest box cameras!), that has information related to your comments. Check out birdsgv.com and in particular the "Ducks Info" link at the bottom of the home page.

Yes. In the wild they will jump from hollow tree nests that are many times higher, as much as 80 feet (8 stories) above the ground! For a truly amazing jump that is even higher see this video: ua-cam.com/video/bsCaFSVRls8/v-deo.html Spoiler, but necessary since otherwise it's hard to watch: the goslings survive, this is normal for them.
Hello Darlo, Yes, you can use some of my footage and thanks for asking (instead of just going ahead). I'm interested to see what you create. Also, and as you may know, there's lots of various video of the wood ducks on my channel or by going to birdsgv.com - there's a way for you to contact me directly from that web site.
IIn the wild they would stop developing and die when no longer kept warm. When I clean out the nest box I discard them humanely, Here's more information: birdsgv.com/duckinfo.html#content2-2m
No. Once incubation starts she periodically turns them by digging down and lifting with her bill to rearrange them so that they all stay at the same temperature. She does this so well that they all develop on the same schedule and hatch together even though some have been in the nest (dormant) for about two weeks longer than others. So why don't they all hatch? More information is here: : birdsgv.com/duckinfo.html
The cameras are described here: birdsgv.com - use the "Ducks Info" link at the bottom of that page and then the "Cameras" link to go to the bottom of the information page.
Yes, it is power for the camera. You might find my web site to be interesting: birdsgv.com. If you scroll down and select the "Ducks Info" button you will find a large section of information about topics such as duck behavior and camera information.
Do you have a problem with *dun-dun-DUNNN* still damp ducklings? Just hit 'em with the business and of a 1500 watt hair dryer for about 2 to 3 minutes and BAMMO! problem solved. You'll have web footed little flufballs in no time. In all seriousness tho, have you ever considered building one of these boxes with a slight angle to the ingress/egress hole? You know, so the little ones don't have to struggle so much with leaving the nest.
It’s my dream to have a backyard near water like this to build a duckbox😍
Good Luck Little DUCKLINGS 👍👍👍🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰

Cómo se alimentan los primeros días mientras están encerrados los pequeños patos?

Ducks are the "marines" of the Armed Forces ;)

i was thinking you fed them to predators like big fish
Does the mother duck know that some of the eggs will not hatch?
No. Once incubation starts she periodically turns them by digging down and lifting with her bill to rearrange them so that they all stay at the same temperature. She does this so well that they all develop on the same schedule and hatch together even though some have been in the nest (dormant) for about two weeks longer than others.

@@7kabel7 Thank you for your reply😊. I love learning new facts about animals💓.
What kind of camera system did you have in the box?
The cameras are described here: birdsgv.com - use the "Ducks Info" link at the bottom of that page and then the "Cameras" link to go to the bottom of the information page.
How do they get back into the box?
They don't! They spend one night in the nest and then leave forever. More about that: birdsgv.com then scroll down and use the "Ducks Info" link.
6:39 haha
awesome
Did I saw electrical wire running up the bird apartment? Is that for your camera?
Yes, it is power for the camera. You might find my web site to be interesting: birdsgv.com. If you scroll down and select the "Ducks Info" button you will find a large section of information about topics such as duck behavior and camera information.
