Awesome on the tolbunts!!! I was going to buy some chicks when Vera picked hers up last weekend, I think I am going to stick to the waterfowl for now though. By the time here start laying maybe I can grab some chicks/eggs from the two of you. Lol.
Can't wait for the calls to hatch. I am overrun with eggs. There's so many eggs in my bator the temp dropped a degree. I had to cover it in towels to get it up to temp, lol. But I think that's why my eggs have been hatching a day late. We will find out anyways. My two call duck eggs that hatched one was grey. You can totally tell the difference. He holds his head close to his body and is SO tiny. The other one kicked out of its shell too early, bled all over everywhere. I put bacitracin on him, gave him vitamins, and I'm leaving him in the bator overnight. He's been really vocal so I'm hoping he'll pull through.
Next up to hatch is I believe the 13th (I'll have to double check) and that's an ancona hatch. I am looking forward to an easy hatch as a kind of break lol. 19th the 4 from you should hatch plus I threw 4 of mine in with them. And I'm too tired to list the rest. Gotta set paint geese eggs tomorrow, then my 18++ call eggs should get here Friday. I really haven't figured out how I'm going to fit them. I may need to break out the Legos again and make some shelves (yes I make shelves in my incubators out of Legos) we will see. Lol
WHOOT enjoy your weekend!!! We've had some allergies/colds going around here with all the rain and pollen in the air, kinda put a stall to our ancona coop. Hoping to pick construction back up next week, should only take a couple days of solid work to finish.
I am trading some call duck eggs for some pilgrim geese eggs. I will collect for you after that and send you some. I've been getting some really cute babies and I don't know whose throwing them out!!
