Our ducks eggs in the incubator began to hatch. We learnt that duck eggs take a lot longer than hens eggs to actually hatch.
Our first duckling hatched on Thursday, a little yellow runner duck.
Closely followed by our second the same evening. Here they are in a broader box which the students helped to make.
It was sunny and warm at the weekend so we let the suckling have a bit of an explore outside.
We discovered the reason they are called 'runner ducks' as they darted about the garden amazingly quickly for something a couple of days old.
Our last little duckling to hatch, two days after the others.
