Re: black-bellied whistling tree ducklings - advice please

OTOH, man has been capturing and domesticating animals for quite a few years. Growing up I had racoons and rabbits as pets, all by lawn baiting, and they all did quite well. It really depends on your level of commitment. It sounds like you really want to care for these birds. If so, my .02 is to ask a vet what should be expected in raising them. Ask around for one that knows about birds--ducks if you can find one. There should also be quite a bit of info on the net--FFA, etc...
p.s. just googled "ducks as pets" and voila: http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~becke...n/As-Pets.html
