How To Hatch & Care For Ducklings

I made this video solely for the purpose of educating the public on what they can do in an emergency situation such as abandonned eggs.
Mother ducks do fly away to feed and they do come back, In my case, she didnt come back for over 24 hours which is when we had heavy rain/hail in Sydney, I decided I had no choice but to take the eggs and hope I can give them life.
Never directly release ducklings into the wild if you are unsure as you are basically ordering their death sentence.
After 2 weeks, I called WIRES (Wildlife Rescue in Australia), They informed me they know someone that could take the ducklings to slowly rehabilitate before releasing into the wild, I was happy with this solution as I know they have a better chance of survivial.

P.S my breed of ducklings happened to be "Pacific Black", I ironically always wanted one as a pet as a child :)
