    I found a black egg!!!!

    Help!!! This morning I found this egg on the floor of the coop.. my usual duck eggs on the right, cant see it being a hen eggs as Iv bantams but never received an egg like this before, I have little black call ducks though I believed to be Pomeranians. #clueless #ducks #blackeggs

    Help Rooster attacking my Duck!!

    Im feeling sorry for him on his own especially with winter setting in as this bunch just love to huddle up together.. Do u think hes ok alone? Obviously the duck cannot roost with them at night but she sits underneath them and snuggled up whilst sunbathing outside.. She's happy as larry again...

    What is this duck breed?

    She's very like our duck and i believe she is a pomeranian.. our girl has a black beak and feet though with nice iridescent green sheen to her also with the white bib.. il try find some good pictures.. I googled the life out of her a thought the Pomeranian was the best fit but maybe im wrong??
