    And If I may recommend a breed if you do get some, Khaki Campbells. They are one of the best layers and a sturdy bird. Mine lays almost every single day, only missed 4 days in almost a whole year.

    Agreed, Messy messy messy but Very sweet and enjoyable. I love putting my pair in the bath tub and watch them frolick in the water. The poop is poop. My roo has bigger piles than my Drake. Their eggs are bigger and have more flavor. Contrary to what people think, they do not need water to...

    Ducks are so easy to keep! I enjoy them so much. My Khaki Campbell, who laid the babies, lays an egg almost every day. I think she has only missed 4 days in over a half a year. Update! Baby with Spraddle foot is still alive and band-aid is helping! We tightened up the band-aid yesterday to get...

I plan on removing them after they are a day old, so tomorrow afternoon. Also: Do you think this is...

    Yeah I was only curious about the first pipping egg, since it has been almost 2 days since I noticed the crack. If no progress has been made when I get home tonyte from work, I will try and peel back a small part of the already popped shell and see about making a small hole in the membrane...

    Heard peeping and I got wigglers! A second egg has a pipping hole and looks like he's trying harder than the first. Question: When should you assist?

    When I opened the incubator to check the other eggs, I heard a peep! I have not seen any movement, and I will only increase the humidity just a bit from what I have read and others have told me. Hopefully they come out ok! :Fingers Crossed:
