duck w/swelling on foot - Page 3

I certainly will. Do I need to supplement her food any? I would like to keep my fingers. I guess I won't be doing any candling. This will be harder than when I hatched some now that I have a very protective hen.

Just give her fresh food and water everyday and maybe some extra protein in the form of Meal worms, I get the dried kind. I also cook duck eggs and smash them up including the shell mix with frozen peas zap some hot water in the microwave and pour over top of this concoction every other day boy do my girls love it, another way to add some extra protein to their diet.
