I wish I could join in.. but the goose and duck eggs will already be in the waterfowl bator before the 20th! (they are slated to go in on the 18th... so missing it by a few days...)

my husband messed up my chicken bator plans.. so I don't even have room for the ones I wanted....

 

have fun guys!
