    Incubating detached air cell eggs on their side

    I am currently incubating my eggs in a egg carton because they have detached air cells. It is day 6-7 of incubation. I was wondering if it will be ok to incubate them on their side instead of upright. I want to use my automatic turner instead of hand turning.

    Can you tell the gender of a Welsh Harlequin duckling?

    Can you notice a difference from Welsh Harlequin ducklings? I hatched ducks and they all turn out to be drakes. So I’m deciding to buy female ducklings.

    Rouen duck male?

    I read that the green head mallard duck is a male. Does that also apply to Rouens? I have a Rouen that sounds like a drake but I’m not sure.

    Crippled Gosling

    Overall the gosling is healthy. It just has a broken leg.

    Crippled Gosling

    I have been doing what you told me to do. But the leg seems to swell more and more over time. It almost looks paralyzed. I thick it is because when the gosling moves place to place, it uses the broken leg to balance. Which is putting pressure on it’s leg causing it to not heal
