Brandy, I don't see anything wrong. Telly us what you see & maybe we can help.

Wing: All I have laying right now are rouens. Probably pure but mules possible because they are penned with the scovies while we get ready to move. Think I have aprox 18 eggs out there from the last week & a half. Have not checked fertility. They are young. I can set a batch if you want them but you will need to take any that hatch. I don' t do ducklings in winter. Tons of rainbow eggs available.

2 EE roos & a cream legbar boy coveribg assorted hens, no 2 hens the same.

I may just go claim your mixed eggs on the water swap,,,,I can always offer pekin eggs or mixed chicken eggs...

here is my dilemms, I am in the process of changing my ducks from pekin to scovy,,,,I only have 6 pekin left and the duck orders are coming in for the holidays, i stopped setting the pekin eggs encount of the change and the scovies are not old enough to lay eggs so I have none to set.......need to keep the meat part of this moving some how...i doubt i will see many scovy eggs till spring

Lisa, rainbow egger just means they each lay a different color. I have white, cream, chocolate, blue, green, olive & about 6 different shaded of tan/brown. All of my roos are blue/green carriers so next generation will lay even more colors.

Wing: I have a bunch of spare ducks & geese right now because I'm cutting flocks for winter & the move. PM me if you want a list. We could work out a delivery or relay if you want them.

Yupp, what Silkie said.
And also, each hen lays one egg color. So not like green the one day and blue the next from the same hen.

Hey Wing:

What's a water swap? and for us 'flatlanders" why the move from Pekins...(thought they were the biggest and best tasting ducks)

Silkie-

I got the ivermectin, I am going to wait a couple of days before giving it to them to make sure the poop issue doesn't just go away with some multi-vitamins and yogurt. I got the paste (1.8%). What dose do you use/ can you eat the bird after? Egg withdrawl is 14 days right?
