I know they are fine. I just am not comfortable setting eggs that old. I am a spaz.

Their eggs are so darn thick. I can throw them hard across my yard and slam them on the ground without a hairline crack. I only give them feed. Maybe some fruit during summer and a few mealworms, but that's it

Thickness is usually the problem, how hot is it there in texas right now? if temps are already in the 90s plus under a hen then they could have gotten to hot and well you know

Baby 2 isn't looking so good. This is the one with the belly issue. I am using blue kite now. My dad going to corner store to pick up non flavored pedialyte. What can I gently force feed it? Like something mashed, similar to baby food..

I picked up 3 two week old muscovy babies yesterday. Im so excited to watch them grow and see what they end up looking like. I think I may have 2 females and 1 male but I'm not sure! Brand new to duck ownership!
