    Hello again ! It's been about 6 months since this event and the 4 little ones are now these big white ducks ! Still my babies but they're bigger than their parents. Not much to say other than that they live outside now with their parents, but separated because the father would try to hurt them...

    So now it's Wednesday and they're going to be all put together today. They are all eating and walking (except for the last one who is new to walking). They chirp/peep a lot but their cute. Krackle seems to be like a mother to two of them but then those two aren't close to any of us at all. What...

    Krackle was introduced to them yesterday and of course they pipped at each other but after a little while, they fell asleep all together in a big clump. They are already eating and drinking after Krackle teaching them. We decided to name all the babies with the letter 'K' as the first letter. So...

    UPDATE: The last one of September was born so now we have 4 lil healthy ducklings. We have one more in the incubator for October 5th but not sure if it'll come out since we've open and closed it a lot. I'd be perfectly fine with my 4 lil angels. Will put up pics and more updates everyday.

    TWO EGGS BORN THIS MORNING ! I woke up to three very loud sounds, which was peeping. I got up and looked at the incubator, and two of them were out and walking around in the incubator. What a long morning it has been, I woke up at 1:00 and stayed up until everything was situated. We don't have...

    Will probably introduce him to water soon, sounds like he'll have some fun ! UPDATE: First egg has gotten through with it's bill/beak out of the shell so maybe by morning. The second egg has gotten a little further by now, can see him pushing and shaking. And now we have a THIRD egg shaking and...

    He is so energetic that it's hard to take pictures of him but this is what I could get so far: YAWNNNNNNN! Nap time. & There's my photos ! He is waiting for his little brother/sister to come out but the other egg is resting a lot. He needs his little partner to hatch so...

    Krackle is so loud when me and my family aren't in the same room with him. He is so attached to us and it would be so great for him to have a little buddy. He will have one soon! And yes he definitely has the crested but its small just like his/her parents had when they were young. Definitely a...

    Oh don't worry, I'm currently collecting pics and will be posting them by this afternoon. Also the externally pipped egg has gotten a little more work done but is still a little way from hatching so hopefully he'll get to work!

    He is just a wonderful delight. He has started to learn cues (stop, come, fast, slow down). He knows his name by now and he just loves to cuddle in my neck. He is currently sleeping and is so cute. Two of the eggs are shaking and one of them are already externally pipped (mentioned already), so...

    UPDATE: The bottom right egg has pipped externally but not a lot. Just a little star looking. He responds when light and taps are going on. Hopefully by Sunday we'll have another.

    No pipping yet that I see externally, just a lot of shaking of the egg from them.

    UPDATE: The new baby is doing amazing, he has started walking but he is currently crawling. He has fluffed out since these pictures and looks so cute: And there you go ! He is doing good under 87 degrees, he has gotten a little water into him and he's very energetic and...

    Thank you thank you, I see so many difference between them so I think this one will be a success.

    The second egg has HATCHED! He came out on his own, eyes wide open not like poor lil chip, has been holding his head up in a straight position, and has been trying to get on his feet. Looks 100% better than Chip did when he came out. I wish he didn't hatch this soon but I guess this is looking...

    Joy, I cannot express how much this meant to me. I literally cried while reading this because I never thought someone I never met would understand and see how much I cared for this little one. I really did hope that I have him a wonderful life and did well with him. My compassion is remarkable...

    These were some wonderful words, thank you. I tried to stay strong for him and I did think he had a good life for what he had. Miss Lydia and Kevin and Iain have been amazing and helped me through this whole thing until the end.

    Much better for him. I will probably keep this post up since it means a lot to me now and that the thread title is accurate since I have another few coming. Just have to wait for them to come along and hopefully healthy because I don't know if I could go through this again. Thanks for all your...

    Thanks, I'll be okay. Just hoping the next few will be okay. Just never encountered death of an animal before and I felt him and had no words. Thanks though.
