Hi! I'm hatching call ducks again this year and I bought 12 eggs from a seller off of Ebay.
I'm all for surprises but I'm also curious on what colors I could end up with!
From the pictures and the description of the item on Ebay, they have one penciled male, one white male, female black bibbed...
Hey so I went to go feed my ducks and I noticed Buzzard's wing was bleeding (where his angel wing is) it's not that bad and I'm cleaning him up at the moment but I was wondering what could I put on it for pain relief? I'm not sure if hes in pain but just in case I wanted to give him something...
So my call girl, Pike
Laid 9 eggs!!
She had been acting differently, she was usually separated from the flock, scavenging on her own, laying on her own, etc. although the others still provided her company every now and then, she just seemed like she wanted to be alone.
I went down there today...
So I'm back with Buzzard.. ever since his mate, Newt died, hes grown very protective of his kids, Fawn, Pike and Tokki.
He didn't attack me as much as he used to but he started back up but its been off and on, I usually don't get attacked unless my hands are near him, he just runs up to me and...
Hi! This is probably a dumb question but I'm curious
I still have some of Newt's fertile eggs and we weren't planning on hatching any more of her eggs so we stored them in the fridge
I heard people store their eggs up to 24 hours in the freezer before hatching them (when shipped)
So basically I...
Also! Here are a few pictures of Buzzard on his birthday! (His birthday was September 13th!) Him and his kids ate the entire cake! Unlike last time on Newt's birthday, they didn't wanna finish it! 😅
I know this thread is kinda old but heres another update!
These guys are 14 weeks old now!
Here is a video of them and some pictures! Don't mind the dirty water, I gave them fresh water 2-3 days ago and they've already dirtied it : ')
I'm super excited to see what Tokki will...
Yeah I used to be able to tell what genders my Mallards would be by their bill color but with these guys, it completely slipped my mind.
Ooh! Well I hope they are females :) I love Fawn and White ducks! I've always wanted a Fawn and White Call duck.
Another update!
They have accepted him into the flock. I haven't seen him try anything, I do spend most of my hours down there spending time with them too.
I did notice when I'm not in there, they are all happy and fine and scavenging together. But when I am in there, Fawn, Pike and Tokki like...
Another update!
He doesn't attack me anymore, he walks right past me and goes to the other ducks. The only time he attacks is when I pick him up to put him in drake jail.
Wanted to update this!
Ever since his mate died, hes been acting quite well with the other ducks. He tries to follow them but they run from him. Hes been able to sit right next to them and I haven't had any problems with him attacking them.
He seems quite sad and wants some friends since hes...
