The Gallus Way
In the Brooder
I have five Peking ducks, one of which is male so four females. They were ducklings this past spring and I've been waiting for them to lay. I have found about a dozen, thought that was all that they were doing. Then this morning-wham! I found a nest with 29 eggs! They were all buried and some were fertilized. (I created a new thread with more info).
Anyway, I just assumed that they were community laying like my chickens do. After reading this thread I am wondering if I am wasting my time giving them a chance to hatch. The thread I created is called "Egg Issues" and is waiting for approval from the moderators as I assume this post will be, (Point being that by the time you see this I believe my original thread will be view-able assuming that I am approved.)
Any thoughts, experiences, are appreciated!
