➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Why not? Isn't that what you do?
Hatch duckies and know things?

I did not keep these duckies.

Smart move.

I did not keep these duckies.

I know you didn't, but you weren't able to keep contact with the people you gave them to?

No.

A friend sent me this...thought it was appropriate for our days of confinement.

Good thing.
I started with three ducklings I hatched. They were soooo cute!
Then I hatched some of their eggs.
Next like chicken math, I bought a few to bring variety to the flock. Hatched some of those eggs, let two duck hens hatch babies and by the time I was done, I had 43 ducks!
We only have Daisy now since she was hiding on a nest of eggs when the butcher came to pick up the flock of ducks.
No, I gave those eggs to the dogs!

Several years ago I had quail and pheasant.
And then there were the wild turkey we hatched.
Years ago we had rabbits.
Years before that we had hamsters.
Some lessons take years to learn!

I'm still learning.....I have 500 chicks to chickens.

I'd be in deep doodoo if I were able to have noise makers.

I'd probably be a hoarder for real.
Chicks every where.
