    They sit in Spring, and
    thirteen eggs are put under
    them, and at the end of
    four weeks the young
    ducklings break through the
    shells.
    The young ducklings get
    boiled stirabout and milk.
    They should have separated
    milk, or water to drink at
    all times.
    When calling ducks you say
    "Lute, lute, lute, lute."
