    Cayuga Duck Eggs- odd color yolks

    Update: my other ducks now are having odd colored yolks. It is no where near as dark as my Cayuga gal, but they all are a bit different looking. I don't remember this happening last year, but it is possible that the Khaki Campbells were staying closer to the hen house last fall.

    Yep, I know the house! My friend was a retired trooper who just moved from a house 1/2 a mile from your brother. Small world truly.

    Yeah, I know how that is. I only wanted a few guineas to help with ticks. I only got the chickens to help socialize the guineas. I wound up with 19 guineas and 22 chickens! Unfortunately, thanks to predators, I am down to one guinea. I still have 16 chickens. Only lost two when they were...
