Duckling update

Well, Dora still hadn't moved off her nest tonight so we had to gently shoo her off so we could remove the remaining eggs as (bless her) she was waiting for them to hatch. Sadly, of the 3 eggs remaining one hadn't hatched at all but the other two had dead ducklings which had halfway hatched - I've no idea why this happens?! :( However, on the bright side, we have 2 beautiful, fluffy yellow ducklings which have now followed Dora out to the the food and water. Tomorrow we plan to let them all out of the run and go on the pond (if they want to). We'll have to supervise them closely to start with and be ready with the pond net in case of any problems. Mr 10-t is then going to build a temporary run on the grass for Dora and the babies so they can be out during the day as they need something with netting over the roof as well to stop any magpies or cats taking them.
