Ducklings and pool

We hatched 4 golden hybrid duck eggs out of 23. We also have hatched 7 khaki campbells out of 18 not a very good hatch rate but our room temperatures change frequently. The golden hybrids are twice the size of their parents at 2 months and already start laying! They are all black with blue wing feathers. They are gorgeous!  We also finally got the pool up! It's going to take a while to fill though due to well and drought we dont want to run well dry we let it rest all day yesterday.
Our garden had also come in nicely I canned 3 qts green beans and 13 qts potatoes. We had spaghetti squash for dinner and we also have zucchini.
