    Baby trying but crack and small hole is in small end of egg

    I really appreciate your opinion. Reading what all occurs in the hatching process I certainly do not want to comprise her health. I’ll keep you posted, I’m going to giver her more time. I bet I check on her multiple times throughout the night....sleep is overrated anyway!

    Should I be concerned?

    I have two Rouen ducks. Not sure of their sex yet but am concerned about one that has deep grooves/lines on his neck. Can anyone tell me if this is something to be concerned about? I also have noticed feathers on his legs. Is this normal?
