I had this happen with ducks this week. I went to go do lockdown and had a duckling already hatched! All 5 hatched within two days after, go figure. Today should have been hatch day and they're all done!
Ohhhhhh! I'm in love with them too!
That would be the hard part, having to rehome or...
Whoop! Chiquta's FBCM's are popping! 5 of 8 made it to lockdown, and 4 are out, plus 2 of 3 Silkies made it to lockdown and one is pipped! Yay decent hatch!
I saw this on another thread and though you all would get a kick out of it. This auction is trying to get around the no live birds on eBay rule....

I have a little male who I need to update the progress on, he was about the same dark silver color when he hatched. I have more eggs in the bator, so hopefully he'll have a few girlfriends in a few weeks.
Glad most of you all are ok!
Hugs and love, and like everyone else said, take care of yourself... Goodies can wait.
That's what I'd do. I suspect his awful temperament would breed down also and you don't want that. Yes, it will be a be longer, but if you have one of the only decent breeding...
Nothing wrong with being a collector! That was my original intent with my layer flock, and really still is. All of the one offs and ones and ones I change my mind about breeding will just head there. Are you ok to sell eggs with the MG for eating?
I was just going to say that :)
Whaoo! Send you egg customers here, I've got 4 18 packs and 2 dz in the fridge. No call from the ad all weekend... D'oh.
Duck #2 is pipped! Ducky Wucky shall have a wet and messy friend yet. Gahh, I know everyone said duckling are messy, but whoo you...
