Can you post pictures of them?A chicken coop or dog house will work. They will need a secure pen, too, if you have dogs. A kiddie pool will be great for them! You might be able to use it as a brooder with pine shavings in it until you can get them a house and pen outside.
Game bird food is very high in protein which will make their poop extra stinky and may cause angel wing later (where the tips of their wings bend outward - not a big deal, but something to consider). Duck starter will be better because it will have a better amount of niacin, which ducks need in order to have strong legs.
Move slowly around the ducks and handle them carefully every day. They will calm down.

When I had 4 ducks in a brooder, I changed their bedding at least 3 times a day. I also let them play in warm water every day. I filled my bathtub with just an inch or so of warm water and let them play in it for a few minutes. Then I would take them out and dry them off with a towel. I increased the water and swimming time as they got older. That will keep them cleaner.
