Duckling question


Someone on another (uk) ng is too shy to come here to ask the following and
he's getting some weird replies ...


" ...A mother duck has just given birth, hatched, or what ever, eleven
ducklings in our back garden for some inexplicable reason.

" At the moment we've got them all foraging around our garden very safely,
which is quite a cute scene. We've made a make-shift pond out of a baking
tray which they seem to be enjoying. Which is quite ironic as the baking
tray has seen quite a lot of duck/poultry baking action in its time.

" Any advice as to how we should look after them would be much appreciated?
We're around a quarter of a mile from a canal."


Can anyone give him a comforting answer?

I suggested that he should leave them to themselves and enjoy their presence
while it lasts.
