Young Duckling in a Spring Environment

Ducklings are young waterfowl that stay close to water sources and grassy banks. They spend their early days following adult ducks to learn where to find food and shelter.

Facts About Waterfowl and Ducklings

Young ducklings hatch with a layer of soft down feathers that insulates them against cool spring weather. Although they swim early, they rely on preening oils transferred from their mother to keep their down waterproof.

Real Colors of a Duckling

  • Down feathers: yellow, soft brown, or cream
  • Beak: orange or pale yellow
  • Webbed feet: bright orange or tan
  • Grass: fresh green
