I raised some ducklings and when they grew up, I put them in my backyard lake. To this day, all four ducklings still visit us! Without these types of videos, I wouldn’t have ever started the duckling raising project! Thank you!!
eric guilliod I’m about to do this with my daughter for the first time, our eggs are on the way just now. Some people are saying you should take duck eggs out the incubator to cool, once a day? Did u do this?
This is great. My wife and I were looking for ducks for egg production and eggs at our suburb home and the information I was getting on how to do this was all over the place. This was so damn simple and easy to understand I feel way more comfortable now handling this. Thanks a ton!
My friend. I've never commented on a video in my life. I absolutely love your straight to the point educational swing. I'm going to try to convince the boss(my wife) that we need ducks on our homestead. Thank you, beloved. This video is a home run.
I wish I had watched this video two months ago! This was officially my last stinky, mucky, super gross duck brooding season (we only had one with our chicks and still had to change the trough every day.) Next year we are adopting this system and finding new uses for our large metal Tractor Supply trough and clip-on exposed light bulb. Thanks for the excellent info!
I just got my trough. Unfortunately after almost burning down the house with the heat lamp falling and killing 11 of my 12 ducklings. But I did not wast money. That trough will be used for a mini cow in the future. I restarted and am learning very quickly.
Subscribed right NOW because of this video!!!! I have been going back and forth on getting ducklings next month when I get my chicks. I think this set up is genius!!!! I think this will be perfect for raising chicks and ducklings together!
Thank you guys for the info. Hubby just came home with 4 ducklings today and I needed this information. We've never had ducks before so this video really helps to know what we are in for. Much appreciated!
Did you end up using this setup? We are about to get a few ducklings and already have a few 16 gallon tubs so wasn’t sure we needed the 50 gallon since we will only have 2 or 3. Thanks!
By far the best easiest straight forward intro to brooding ducklings on the internet. Thank you I've had to learn most through trial and error and u answers a lot of my questions
This is by far THE BEST video I have seen on keeping the brooder cleaner with ducks!! Thank you for sharing! I will be trying the water idea. I use a heat plate. They are safer for a lot of set-ups & work great, I know this video is 7yrs old and I am not even sure how available or used they were at that time.
I have used rusted out metal stock tanks for brooders. Free, because they can't hold water anymore. I also use baling wire from the straw and feed bales I use on the farm to hang up lights and feeders. I enjoy your videos! Always good to hear how others do things on the farm!
This is such a good idea! I raised 6 ducks this year and they were *so* messy as babies, but I really love them as adults (they are much friendlier and more confident than my chickens! Plus they are doing much better in the cold weather than the chickens are. The chickens stay in their coop and only come out for food, while the ducks seem to enjoy the 7" of snow we've already gotten). I'm definitely getting more ducks next year, and am happy to find a good way to keep them cleaner!
By far this is one of the best videos I have watched trying to learn how to take care of my ducklings. My husband surprised me for our anniversary got me ducklings completely unprepared absolutely nothing five weeks ago. Sadly I lost two of the four ducklings. Two were still going strong there about six weeks old. I started doing research trying to find anything they are past this phase boy do I wish I would’ve saw this earlier. You were straight to the point clear informative and actually showing how and why you do this method. I’m gonna go find your channel and follow so that I can keep up with the ducklings.
Thank you so much for this video! Raising chicks last year was a hassle at times but this setup simplifies a lot of the things that bothered us. Getting a flock of 4 ducks and 3 chickens in a few weeks, going to give this method a try!!
Thanks for this video. Really helped. My grandpa found a duckling yesterday without its mom and decided to take care of it until it’s old enough to go out on its own.
Shared on Facebook. Good video. I didn't use cool tricks when we had a brooder full of 16 ducklings who all lived and grew quickly. I just foolishly cleaned that stupid box three times a day! Never again 😅😅
Thank you so much for the painters tray water trick. Completely turned around my duck brooder from a disgusting swamp into a comfy home for them to grow for a few more weeks
The straps are genius!!!!!! I plan on doing a lot of brooding this year (Cornish crosses, new layers, meat ducks, quail) I think I'll invest in a couple of those heat lamps and use the straps to keep them secure.
anthony 35 the vid is called “Raising ducks- clean and easy set up” idk if you just couldn’t find the video or you ain’t on UA-cam no more but... we want update :(
This helps so much thank you we recently rescued 10 ducks from the freeway unfortunately the mother and seven of them didn’t make it.... but we’re taking care of the other seven!
Hiya 🙋♀ I'm looking into raising ducks for their eggs and I found your video very helpful. I appreciate how you approached it with a cost effective way of keeping them safe & warm with fresh clean water. A lot of the other videos made it seem as though ducks were constantly dirty, messy and stinky, which makes one shy away from raising them. Thank you! Future duck mama 🦆
I’m all set up for brooding and my ducklings are starting to peck at the shell 🥰here soon I’ll have two baby ducklings 🐣🐣 thank you for this video, such and amazing idea, clean and cheap. 🥰 I wish I could add a picture of our set up.
Ive made you famous on the duck forums on FB now i set what you did up in my home the BOMB your awesome thank you for the hard work and research to make us duck peeps learn something worth watching!
in the house now though i did not use the light i have an elevated heat plate brooder for them to go under so no chance of fire in the house. Thank you again you need to post lots more of your wonderful tips Its now shared all over the forums. Your awesome!
Good morning. I raised my duck from a few weeks old. I purchased the duckling and placed him under my T shirt. I just kept him there, except for his feeding and watering. I slept with him and he kept warm. How to firm up his poo. I put yogurt in his water, which I do every morning and evening. After a few weeks I mixed whole wheat with his baby food. when fresh corn came into season, I would roast the corn on the coals a bit, then remove and feed them to him. He loved it and in 2 months he got very big. He always sits with me. we talk with each other. Now that he is big, at night he sleeps in front of a large mirror. I put news papers on the floor in front of the mirror. I clean up in the morning. Any place he has pooed, I just collect it and place it in my orchids or my roses. I have one room with over 50 orchid plants, so his poo is great for my orchids and my roses on the roof of the building. I live in Tangiers, Morocco. I feed him any fruit I am eating for breakfast. Now days, it is black grapes. Before that it as apricots and peaches. He is sitting with me now. At night, he stays with me until he wants to sleep. He will go and sleep in front of the mirror, which is at night after sunset. Also in the morning, I have a push scraper to clean the floors and bathroom. I use it to remove his excess water on the floor around his water. So, I keep him in the apartment. I take him to the roof, when I am watering my roses, flowers and trees there. In the afternoon, he takes a nap with me. He likes to put his head next to mine and sleeps. I guess that he is a male. Actually I do not know, but no eggs as yet. I pet him and scratch his neck and chest, etc. He likes to kiss me on my beard or put his head on my shoulder. He always stays with me, except when I am watering, or cleaning or washing my clothes. He would sit in front of the mirror, or sit in from on the computer and watch the news. So, ducks do not have to be messy. No, I do not have a tub of water for him to swim. Maybe, I will try that next month. I can use the roof for that. His feathers are growing out no days and his is spreading them out and fanning them, so I am thinking that he is a male. when I am talking with him and joking with him, he just talks and talks back to me. He always has an answer. hen he comes to me, he is always quacking to inform me that he is coming. If he can not find me, he also, is making a noise, looking for me. Then I call him, he comes and stops. He needs to know where I am all the time. If I go out he just waits for me at the door, until I come home. Yes, he has a smell, but it is not an issue. I keep my apartment clean and the duck, but my friend here says that my apartment smells a bit like a duck. I have only this one duck, no others. Before I got this duck, I used to have a chix, but hen they grow up, they are aggressive and do not make good pets. My duck is never aggressive and very loving. I prefer him to any bird, cat or dog. Cats are not so friendly and males are very smelly. Dogs are big and problem. Small birds are not good pets, so my duck is the answer. He is very friendly and loving, never a problem and also can be funny at times. SELIM AL RASHID
I'm happy I sub to your channel, when I was little we had a small farm until my parents split and it all ended basically due to that. I have a son and I want him to enjoy it like I did for good so this is actually helping me know better ways and soon for him too, so I'm thankful for you for making these videos I mean it. Can't wait to get started this month with everything!!
I once found a goose egg in my yard. Did so many duck and goose reasearching, I basically wasted my time and heating pad over an infertile egg. Then one day a duck came to my yard, I fed her, gave her water, and she kept coming back, one day with her ‘mate’. So I tried to get her in my backyard for some more food, but they left and I see her around. ❤
Just got 10 khaki campbells a week now. And yes they are messy LOL. So some of your tips will be put into place now and really put into place later when we go further and hatch our on. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for the help.. the paint trays did help. I was so frustrated with the mess and constant cleaning. 😫 I had to help my chick and ducks to a show and tell at school. My students are so excited. But, I need to come up with a way to keep it keep and less stinky while it's hanging at the school.
This guy is amazing! getting ducks in a couple months. Thank you for this video! subscribed!! keep up the great info!! Your helping people care for their ducks in a healthy way! THANK YOU!! -Jesus loves you!
Excellently made video!!!!! you should be proud of this one. I am subscribing because in this video you gave tons of practical information for those of us who don't know anything about the subject. You also gave links for everything you talked about, down to the hooks! that makes it easy for us beginners to duplicate your system. I am impressed that you even gave us a choice of duplicating your setup without supporting the channel! That shows character. that also shows me that you are more concerned with teaching your subject than making money. This kind of program shows me that you truly care about your topic and your viewers. Well done!!!!!
This is a nice informative video, appreciate you taking the time to show us your method I know nothing about ducks now I am enlightened! thanks for sharing.
Great intro to brooding ducklings, thank you for sharing your cumulative experience with us! I used most of your amazon purchase links, hope that helps support you!
Wow!! Congrats on 20k!!! You guys definitely deserve it, you have worked so hard to get here! Wish I had seen this video earlier, I just raised a batch of ducklings in a brooder, and they stunk like, it was unbelievable. Keep up the good work!!
I got a hard lesson today about ducklings and water. The ones I got were being raised outside with their mom. I put mom and her ducklings in a closed in pen and put a square tub inside half-filled with water. The ducks loved swimming in it, but the sides of the tub were too high to jump out. In the morning I found 4 dead, and one barely hanging on that did live on. I added 4 bottles that were 8 oz. filled with tap water to the bottom. Now they can have a few inches of water, but still able to hop out to be with mama.
Great info! You can get the Wyze or Net Vue cameras for like $20-30. No reason to spend $200. They’re good quality too. Decent enough to check on your ducks and view the temp lol. The cameras move too.
We previously had a house security system/intercom before getting chicks. Once they hatched, my mom turned it into a “chick cam” 😂😂😂. She love it because she doesn’t have to smell the baby chicks, but she could see how cute they are!
That was a nice looking heat lamp, but the link is dead now (a little over two years from publishing). That's a great idea for the water. I already have some of those chick feeders and I'd had the paint thing to let them go for supervised swims. I just need the screen.
Pretty neat video. I have not seen the paint pan used we actually usually cut a milk just of plastic containers so they can get there head all the way in but not their bodies, but we still have to put it in or on something to catch the excess water.
Newly subscribed!!!!! I love this video, so very informative and I must say that your method is the best I have seen for brooding the chicks/ducklings. Fantastic. I will follow this method when we get our Khaki Campbell ducklings next spring. Great tutorial!!!! Thank you very much!!!!! 👍
I use link chain to suspend my heat lamps and I use a metal clip (like for a dog leash). It's as adjustable as it it needs to be and it won't melt if it comes in prolonged contact with the heat lamp.
Hey man if you go to your local hydroponic shop they have these ratchet light hangers which will easily hold those lights but you won’t have the slack to deal with they are very good and not expensive all the best to you
I liked the blooper at the end so much I shared the video :D nice set up and i've watched the duckling cam once or twice but they was sleeping at three am :D Nice of the viewers to let you know of possible dangers thanks for sharing
We have a small animal cage. It's plastic bottom and wire top. We've raised several baby birds in it. It's easy to clean and keeps the other animals out. There's room in it for the laydown/stand up heater until the weather is nice enough to put them out with the adult birds. The ratchet straps for the lights are a great idea! If we decide to hatch more, I may implement that.
I got a great idea that piggybacks your idea with the ratchets... that yellow plastic chain they sell at home Depot then you can go up or down a link easily.
I haven’t used the Nest cams, but I have used the Blink XT cams for my chickens. The Blink XT has night vision and temperature which you can monitor. Newer models have two way audio like your Nest. The Blink XT are closer to $100 I believe. Worth checking out to compare to your Nest. Great video. Thanks!
nice way of explaining.. I didn't feel of the length of the video because it was all interesting. and I subscribed because of the "chirp chirp chirp" of the boy 😍
I like the idea of having two free rubbermaid tubs that are ready to go on cleaning day. But I really think next year we're going to try raising our ducks in a spare bathtub inside the house.
do you have any videos on like what temps they need, what to feed when, and how often to let them swim in water? also what do you do once theyre grown?
So I used the links from the video and bought all the supplies for my ducklings. Just a heads up the paint tray and metal cover from the links do not fit together. I found my waterer didnt fit on the small metal cover and kept sliding down. If you try this I recommend going to the actual store and not using the links. I ended up brooding my ducklings in the bath tub and it is working really well and keeping enough dry area for my ducklings.
I raised some ducklings and when they grew up, I put them in my backyard lake. To this day, all four ducklings still visit us! Without these types of videos, I wouldn’t have ever started the duckling raising project! Thank you!!
Awww this made my day
Please don't ever release domestic animals into the wild..🤦
I completely copied you, and it works perfectly! First time bird owner. Thank you for your help! I know I can always count on the UA-cam family!
eric guilliod I’m about to do this with my daughter for the first time, our eggs are on the way just now. Some people are saying you should take duck eggs out the incubator to cool, once a day? Did u do this?
Peaches Jackofski what did you end up doing
Peaches Jackofski Yes you must spray them. I’m a little too late but others can see
Is it expensive? I was wondering. I would quite like to buy ducklings. I only want a couple. If you have any advice please tell me :)
My cat just brought a duckling in but it's not injured what do I do? Please.
Interesting that the next UA-cam recommendation is "How to butcher Ducks". Geez UA-cam! Thanks for the tips!
TheShopaholicLADY Omg yeah same
If you don't like to see how animals are butchered, maybe you should stop eating them...
TheShopaholicLADY I want ducks for eggs. Cooked duck taste like crap. They are pets.
@@patdawkins6785 maybe pets for you, but not for everyone
That’s your cookies fam
This is great. My wife and I were looking for ducks for egg production and eggs at our suburb home and the information I was getting on how to do this was all over the place. This was so damn simple and easy to understand I feel way more comfortable now handling this. Thanks a ton!
My friend. I've never commented on a video in my life. I absolutely love your straight to the point educational swing. I'm going to try to convince the boss(my wife) that we need ducks on our homestead. Thank you, beloved. This video is a home run.

You will not regret it!

I have used rusted out metal stock tanks for brooders. Free, because they can't hold water anymore. I also use baling wire from the straw and feed bales I use on the farm to hang up lights and feeders. I enjoy your videos! Always good to hear how others do things on the farm!
The time lapse makes it look like you're just absolutely YEETing the ducklings.

Now they can have a few inches of water, but still able to hop out to be with mama.
Love it. Chasing 10K subscribers. It's now 145K. Great stuff.
"Ratchet it up" sounds like my life 😂
Thanks for the tips I have made the water tray and it works great. I look forward to learning more.thanks again
Thank you for this awesome and most helpful video. I’m super excited to raising ducklings on my own in the near future!
Wow, the section at 1:50 in the video is really impressive
Great info! You can get the Wyze or Net Vue cameras for like $20-30. No reason to spend $200. They’re good quality too. Decent enough to check on your ducks and view the temp lol. The cameras move too.
We previously had a house security system/intercom before getting chicks. Once they hatched, my mom turned it into a “chick cam” 😂😂😂. She love it because she doesn’t have to smell the baby chicks, but she could see how cute they are!
I love ❤ ducks I can not wait until we get ours, thank you for this video
That was a nice looking heat lamp, but the link is dead now (a little over two years from publishing).
That's a great idea for the water. I already have some of those chick feeders and I'd had the paint thing to let them go for supervised swims. I just need the screen.
Thank you for your great & wonderful ideas.
I'm going redo my systems .
Thank you again for your video
Pretty neat video. I have not seen the paint pan used we actually usually cut a milk just of plastic containers so they can get there head all the way in but not their bodies, but we still have to put it in or on something to catch the excess water.
Newly subscribed!!!!! I love this video, so very informative and I must say that your method is the best I have seen for brooding the chicks/ducklings. Fantastic. I will follow this method when we get our Khaki Campbell ducklings next spring. Great tutorial!!!! Thank you very much!!!!! 👍
I love ducklings

@@douglasstubbs595 damn, you took this comment personally 😂
@@douglasstubbs595 bro she just said she loves ducklings-
I use link chain to suspend my heat lamps and I use a metal clip (like for a dog leash). It's as adjustable as it it needs to be and it won't melt if it comes in prolonged contact with the heat lamp.
Awesome video thanks for the tips. Had chickens for years but this year wife and kids wanted to try ducks too. thanks this was super helpful!!!
I have a duckling and it is brand new!thank you so much!!!!
Hey man if you go to your local hydroponic shop they have these ratchet light hangers which will easily hold those lights but you won’t have the slack to deal with they are very good and not expensive all the best to you
Love the video very informative. I have 9 ducks. about to have 20 more in a couple days. 🤯😍
Awww the ducks are just adorable🥺
I liked the blooper at the end so much I shared the video :D nice set up and i've watched the duckling cam once or twice but they was sleeping at three am :D Nice of the viewers to let you know of possible dangers thanks for sharing
+freakygeaktwo I haven't watched at three am yet 😂 glad to know they're not getting into too much trouble
Excellent information. Got some Indian Runners hatching soon. Thanks a lot!!
We have a small animal cage. It's plastic bottom and wire top. We've raised several baby birds in it. It's easy to clean and keeps the other animals out. There's room in it for the laydown/stand up heater until the weather is nice enough to put them out with the adult birds. The ratchet straps for the lights are a great idea! If we decide to hatch more, I may implement that.
OUTSTANDING Sir!!~ Thank you for all of this fantastic start up information!
That little boy is such a ham! 😂😍😍
Thanks new to raising ducks and need to try this method as we are struggling with this mess 😂
I got a great idea that piggybacks your idea with the ratchets... that yellow plastic chain they sell at home Depot then you can go up or down a link easily.
we make a chain with zip ties to hang out heat lamps 😉
+Candice Christensen zip ties are very crucial to a good homestead 🤣
Excellent video, shared and subscribed. Thank you. Really nice setup.
I love ducks lol. Finnally got some this year. They are now out of the brooder but watching incase I go back to get more lol.
I haven’t used the Nest cams, but I have used the Blink XT cams for my chickens. The Blink XT has night vision and temperature which you can monitor. Newer models have two way audio like your Nest. The Blink XT are closer to $100 I believe. Worth checking out to compare to your Nest. Great video. Thanks!
They stay little for like two weeks. In that time I kept them in the house tub with a towel. Did fine. No light needed. Easy cleanup.
There's nothing like having a linty M & M for your best pal. 😊
nice way of explaining.. I didn't feel of the length of the video because it was all interesting.
and I subscribed because of the "chirp chirp chirp" of the boy 😍
Dude, thanks this video has been extremely helpful.
Dude you are sooo helpful!!! Thank you for this video I enjoy watching you!

Definitely gonna buy that nest cam with your affiliate link!
Very informative, helpful video. Keep posting these great ideas. It helped me!!!!
Does Farmer Brad's Mighty Micro waterer work well for ducks and ducklings?
I like the idea of having two free rubbermaid tubs that are ready to go on cleaning day. But I really think next year we're going to try raising our ducks in a spare bathtub inside the house.
do you have any videos on like what temps they need, what to feed when, and how often to let them swim in water? also what do you do once theyre grown?
my grandfather loves this vieo................so as i...(sri Lanka)thanks guys:)....:)
😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤so nice to have THAT TRX around for an M&M❤❤❤ GOD JAHWEH ADONAI BLESS YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS FAMILY. THANKS FOR THIS GREAT GEM VIDEO ❤❤❤
So I used the links from the video and bought all the supplies for my ducklings. Just a heads up the paint tray and metal cover from the links do not fit together. I found my waterer didnt fit on the small metal cover and kept sliding down. If you try this I recommend going to the actual store and not using the links. I ended up brooding my ducklings in the bath tub and it is working really well and keeping enough dry area for my ducklings.
