My only broody so far this year was Bee, the other three little girls are only just laying their first eggs so I’d be surprised if anyone goes broody again this year but it could happen. The only strange thing is Be resumed laying two days after brooding and then hatching Bramble so maybe... -

The little girls are laying! I’ve been checking on them periodically trying to see who’s laying what, I suspect Avis “Black Swedish” is laying the silver eggs but I really don’t know for sure, I just checked on the nest again and there’s a whole pile so either I have five other ducks sneaking in... -

It's Been More Than 6 Months
I’m so sorry. My geese and ducks are my life and losing those I’ve lost has been unbearable. I understand your pain and I know there really isn’t much anyone can say to lessen your pain. I will say this though, Molly was nearly 15 years old, she lived an exceptionally long life and if that... -

I have more abuse to report. A fire broke out not far from my house and the circling planes and helicopters caused panic in the flock, all of the geese were running around the yard terrified and panting, and Beavis and Butt-Head here “Truffle and Sunbeam” decided this was the perfect...
