However, use of these plugs without a transformer or voltage converter can result in fireworks. The voltage in Europe is twice that of the voltage in the United States, and while many electronics are designed to adapt to voltage changes, it is crucial to check. If the device is not capable of handling 220 volts of electricity, it will fail.
By the time the ducklings are 3-5 weeks old, weather-dependent, they can spend warm, sunny days outside, carefully supervised and protected from predators. Until the ducks are fully feathered around 7-9 weeks old, they have trouble regulating their body temperature and need heat.
I've never had geese, but my call ducklings take less heat for a shorter length of time. That said, they at 5 days of age still need to have a heat lamp 24/7 that they can get under if they choose to.Reply. don't know anything about ducks and geese, Michael, but I'm sure someone here will be able to help soon with practical suggestions. In the meantime, here is a web page that talks about that very thing for you to check out: http://extension.missouri.edu/explore/agguides/poultry/g08920.htm. Blue Roo Creations on Etsy!
