Yes my mamma duck is sitting on them. Some I removed today are no good as she starting sitting on them late. When I went in there today though 2 tried to hatch. One didn’t even seem to have the membrane in anymore. The other I don’t know what happened. I can...
Hello there! I’m debating on taking some of my mamma ducks eggs as I think she’s a little confused . 2 of maths eggs appeared to have tried to hatch but I’m not sure if she didn’t get off of them? I can see one of the other eggs is pipping. But I was curious on how you created your incubator?

You’re so right! This has definitely been a journey, full of ups and downs and all kinds of learning about my duck! Such a beautiful bonding experience at the same time. Last night I just sat on the floor in there with her and she waddled her lil fat butt right over and later her beak on my...
I definitely plan on keeping her In until i think she’s really ready... my poor other girl out there tho, whewww .. I feel for her lol! And we have a log cabin style inside but not out! But oh man wouldn’t that be cool.
Oh I feel the same way... I could have gone to the woods that morning and searched for every coyote in the area lol then I say that and I feel sad that one of gods creatures is being taken out.. but when they come between you and your babes ... wellll 🤷🏽♀️... plus, that was just wayyyyy to...
