How often do baby ducks have to eat and drink?

Answer 1

We incubate chickens so I don't imagine ducks would be that much different, but they don't need food or water for the first 24 hours or so after hatching. Before they hatch they ingest the yolk sac which gives them all the nutrients they need for that first day or two. After that just put some feed down and they'll find it themselves :)

Answer 2

A human should not be keeping ducks and/or ducklings as pets. They are not domestic animals for the home and should be allowed to live in their natural habitat in the wild. Or at the very least, a large farm with wide, open space. Ducklings should be fed based on age, weight, and other factors. Contact a wildlife specialist to provide these ducklings the proper care they deserve. Also, be sure not to just fork over some human food, dog food, etc. They have specific dietary needs that must be met in order for them to grow and flourish.

Answer 3

They must have food and water down at all time. They will eat when they are hungry and they MUST have water at all times or they will die.
