Wifey, I couldn't watch the first video! It made me dizzy. But, they were cute.

Babies are always so cute. It's amazing to watch them get around and know just what to do when they are hatched.

Last year I did a hatch of ancona ducks and was surprised at the results.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think of anaconda snakes whenever they read anything about ancona ducks or chickens?

Cute babies, BTW.

Adorable! They grow so fast though, don't they?

We don't have our own, but my daughter's class incubated and raised ducklings when she was in third grade and we had them home to stay with us over the weekend a few times:

Yellow one was named "Coin-coin" ("quack-quack" in French--my kids are in French-immersion school) and the darker one was named "Petite-brun" (little brown). There was a third who hatched, but didn't make it :( that the class named "Chocolate".
