Call Ducks Finally Hatched

[Ravynscroft]

If I bred my pure grey with my pure magpie could I get grey pied's?

*I think* you'll get magpie... but it depends on if they're hiding other genes or not...

Ok thank you

 

[Ravynscroft]

Ok thank you

Welcome, buff... I ran it across the duck color calculator... think it depends on if they're pure for color, but it's fun to mess with, lol...

Thank you so much for the calculator but I just crossed a snowed and white on there and it told me they would be grey so idk if it's reliable but it is very handy for little things

It all depends on the hen you use with these guys.
You could get magpies, anconas, pied or possibly other colors depending on the genes your female carries

Well I'm willing to try not getting much luck right now just wanna bees do U happen to ship

Lemme tell ya, your first time is gonna be stressful! You're going to want to intervene at the 8 hour mark but you gotta resist that urge. Lacry and Ravyn are call duck hatching pros, I'm intermediate at best, but even I've had to learn patience.

It's gonna be long and stressful... how are the aircells? More sever saddle cells will need more watching... be prepared for sitting on your hands for a couple days...

most of the cells look great, a few still have saddles(do i need to have the saddle pointed up or down) and how long do i need to wait before i help?
