Chicken, Victoria Peckham, adopts duckling called Lucky

A duckling has been adopted by a chicken at a school in Lincolnshire.

Lucky the duckling thinks Victoria the hen is its mum.

It all started when a duck at Fiskerton Primary School tried to hatch 15 eggs but ten got broken.

Broody school hen Victoria Peckham was asked to sit on the remaining five eggs.

After 28 days one of them hatched and that duckling was Lucky.

Victoria took the little duckling under her wing and it is doing well.
