Bought them, I asked the gal i bought them from (sent her some photos) and she said it looks like a Blue Swedish snuck in lol. Well, they made a purrrrrty duck! But if it was a blue swedish, they are noticeably smaller than the BEI! strange eh? She's stumped too. haha
Anyway, I have one...
I've googled this topic plenty with no definitive answer... really, none at all. So do they go by Call Duck incubation times or regular 28 days for ducks? I ask because they just went into lockdown today (day 24) and I hear chirping already...... Please, please, PLEASE be healthy li'l BEI...
Haha yeah Lydia, I had to upgrade to post more photos so they were late...
Here's a giggle.
There are many folks that say a chihuahua, much less my two pounder, is worthless. Well, they have been trained to be therapy dogs, police dogs, and now.... Herding dogs.
I was thinking he may be a buff as well. Here are some more shots of him a little older and his little Pekin friend that just hatched not long ago hehe.
Thanks MissLydia ;) so far his siblings haven't hatched out yet, they were all thriving when I put them in lockdown. So far, he/she is the only child, and stuck to me like glue LOL.
Thank you! My retarded human mom didn't realize about the cardboard, but after telling her she put down some matting for me and boy can I get my legs a-going! The guy my mom bought me from told her he was sure we were mallard eggs, even though my parents hung out in the same watering hole as...
After the little guy spends his 4-12 hours in the incubator drying off, should i move him to the brooder super quick in an out since there are still two other eggs set the same date he was that have no externally pipped yet? How does that work when you have one hatch out and the others alive...
Sigh, i put some bedding in.... that was meant for my daughter's guinea pig (don't ask why i never tossed it out?). It's the kind that is packed tight but supposed to take up more space when taken apart and fluffed. I think he ate some of it..... -_- It was only temporary fix for a day, but...
How absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!! I can see the difference in color now. Pippers passed away this weekend. =/ I believe it was a dumb error on my part because he had plenty of water/food/heat. Crushed, he was such a sweet, beautiful bird. I have mallards internally pipping now, and BEI ducks...
