The best of both worlds, chicks & ducklings, together.

Animal welfare is always our top priority, and every element of this experience is designed to support the health, safety, and wellbeing of the animals. We provide everything families need, along with clear, detailed care and handling instructions and support throughout the week, so parents can feel confident and children can focus on learning and connection.
This is a calm, educational, and memorable week built around trust, thoughtful preparation, and the joy of caring for something together. Offered seasonally in limited quantities.
Week-Long Rental · No hatching required · Everything included · Charlotte, NC
Our Little Flock Take-Home Experience is a week-long, at-home rental that allows families to care for 2 live baby ducklings and 2 live baby chicks in the comfort of their own home. This experience is intentionally designed to be easy, educational, and memorable, with everything provided so families can focus on enjoying the experience.
Perfect for families, homeschoolers, and children who love hands-on learning with animals.
Everything you need for the entire week is provided
• 2 live baby ducklings (less than 2 weeks old at the start of the rental)
• 2 live baby chicks (less than 2 weeks old at the start of the rental)
• safe containment setup suitable for a mixed flock
• Starter feed appropriate for both ducklings and chicks for the full week
• Feeder, waterer, and safe heat plate
• Bedding materials, including two full bedding changes
• Detailed, easy-to-follow care and handling instructions
Ducklings love water, which means their space will need refreshing more often than chicks — this is completely normal and easy to manage. Care for this experience mirrors our Duckling Take-Home Experience.
✔️ Refresh food and water twice daily (morning and evening)
✔️ Rinse the heat plate daily under hot water or wipe to keep it clean
✔️ Two full bedding changes are included (paper towels or newspaper work well for quick daily refreshes if preferred)
✔️ Bedding may be changed as often as you like, based on your comfort level
That’s it. We’ve planned for the mess so you don’t have to.
