    2 hatched chickens day 20, now day 21 and no more signs of hatching?

    Thank you so myc thank you so much. I shouldn’t try and hatch them out myself at some point? I know they say that’s a no no but it would be hard not to help!

    2 hatched chickens day 20, now day 21 and no more signs of hatching?

    I candled them on day 18 before lockdown and they all looked good. Humidity was about 55-60 through incubation and kept at 70 starting day 18. I just saw 2 more rolling around so I’m hopeful for those.

    2 hatched chickens day 20, now day 21 and no more signs of hatching?

    Hello all! I tried reading through some similar posts but of course everybody’s situations are a bit different. I put 12 eggs in the incubator 21 days ago. Yesterday, day 20, 2 eggs hatched. I am not sure if it is important or not to add that neither of them had fully absorbed their yolks and...

    Duck head Bobbing?

    Yes this looks a lot like it! Her “chin” is more tucked but pretty much the same bobbing action. Thank you so much! Your duck is adorable by the way 😊

    Duck head Bobbing?

    Thank you for the welcome! Very interesting! I’ve never even heard of a duck bobbing it’s head until she started doing it recently. I hope it is excitement/happiness! I was worried she was mad at me for leaving 😆

    Duck head Bobbing?

    Thank you! They don’t do it to each other, only one does it to just me. No one else in my family (I raised them) so I was 100% sure if she’s trying to establish dominance or was just happy. Sounds like she’s just happy 😊

    Duck head Bobbing?

    Hello all, I wanted to ask a quick question. I have 2, 3.5 month old Peckins who are still imprinted on me. We recently built them a nice duck house and moved them outside (they were only coming in at night to sleep in my bathtub). This was done while I was out of town for 3 days. When I came...

    Will my ducks ever “un”imprint?

    Oh wow! So it is possible for them to always remain imprinted it sounds! Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad we have a special bond, but I hate that they’re so upset when left alone. We will work on weaning so they can handle small amounts of time alone, comfortably. Thank you!

    Will my ducks ever “un”imprint?

    Thank you! I will start this right away. Im sure they can handle a little crying for bits at a time. My husband has built them a duck house, so I’m hoping as soon as it’s assembled that will help assure them as well. Thank you!

    Will my ducks ever “un”imprint?

    Will my ducks ever “un”imprint?

    Hello all! I just registered for this sight, so please forgive me if I’m posting in the wrong place. Back in July, my kids and I hatched 7 Peckin ducklings and we kept 2. They are nearly 3 months old. They sleep in my bathtub at night and stay in the backyard during the day. My question is, is...
