Hello All, I have a duckling in the first stages of hatching and has just began to pip at the shell. The only reason I saw this is because I went to candle the egg for signs of life i noticed the shell broken a bit on the bottom. Should I let the duckling hatch this way witH the egg oriented...

Excellent

Hello All, I have been reading the forums and haven't seen my questions answered. I would like to know, out of the lifetime of a duck, how long they lay eggs. I understand chickens don't lay their whole life, and usually become meat. Is this true for a duck? Also, I've been reading about the...

How long did it take you to see results? Also how long did you soak their foot for?

Hello! I will be having my first goose this Spring and I wanted to get your opinion on the Toulouse. I have heard they are like guard dogs for any animal trying to get near the flock, however they will be nice to the person that raised them. Are males more aggressive than females? What are...
