Oh yeah, they are all yellow like my Pekins except the one! My mallard is obviously the dady on that one lol!

Ok so i have finally managed to incubate ducklings! Out of the 8 eggs 6 made it, 1 was too late and 1 wasnt any good. But i have 6 fuzzy little bundles of cuteness overload! I am curious though, we had a big storm come through and the last duckling i had to help because we lost power and i could...

These are my big boys! Don is the Mallard, Donald is the Pekin (His girlfriend is Daisey, also a Pekin) and Daffy is the black Runner!

Just a little update on the ducklings! They aren't so little anymore!

These are the babies that i bought! I am almost certain that most if not all are Runners! Or a mix of them. They are so cute! Had to share with everyone since the incubator eggs i don't think are any good... They have quite the personalities!

I candles them the other day and ended up pulling 9 eggs with the black spots. I still have about 7 or 8 in there that look promising! The ones I pulled, I cracked a few and they looked like blood clots on the side of the shell. The ones that Daisey was laying on, I think out of the 7 there were...

Okay so the new set of eggs has been in the bator for 4 days now. I candled a few and this it what i saw in one... not sure if its bad or if maybe im looking at twins. Pretty new at candling.

Ok heres the update.... My incubator came in yesterday, i went and got Daisy's eggs and the were super super cold. I candled candled anyways and there was no movement and a bad odor. I think that she may have abandoned the nest when whatever critter got in there.. so sad. But as for the new...

I have no clue what the brand is. But as for the babies, i believe there is at least 1 runner and 1 pekin. There are 6 babies all together. One looks like a cow lol. And 2 are like an olive green color with chocolate legs! I cant wait to see what they look like grown!

This one will be new to me. Last one i used was a little giant but it wore out to quick being Styrofoam. I already have the brooder set up. I just bought some ducklings today! Should i put all the good ones in or leave some with her and chance it. I also have 2 more Pekins, 1 male 1 female, an...

I actually just ordered one and it should be here tomorrow! Do you think i should put them in when i get it set up?

The temperature has been warm here. The eggs were a little cool when i picked them up but not cold. I will put some food and water a little closer to her to make it easier

Ok so i candled about 4 that i knew were good. All of those had a baby in it. I couldnt tell if there was movement cuz they were big but i did see veins or the vessles which im hoping is a good thing. She is still laying on them but leaving the nest alot more than before

So i think we had an opossum weasle its way into the duck pen. I have this past week found 2 eggs, both with no yolk and just a hole in them. Im not sure if the good eggs are okay or not but momma Daisy is still diligently laying on them still. Sould i leave them be? I thought we would have had...

She actually puffed herself up while i was taking this picture lol!

So this is momma Daisey! Shes being a good momma. No babies yet, but i did candled a few last night and i could see them moving and little duckie feet!! From pics that i have seen they look around 24ish days so anytime now!! She has been spending a little more time outside of her nest. I read...

We just got 2 californians she is due anytime now. Today is day 30! They are so sweet!

I will and thank you for all the help! !

Im thinking they are due this week which is awesome becaue my rabbit is due anytime now!! Its like having kids all over...

Thank you!! Yes i have candled before, but she is such a good mother! The only time she leaves her nest is to eat or drink so she maybe leaves only a couple of times a day. Im not too worried about how the eggs are. They are all nice and neat, i sort of figured she was giving them room to hatch...
