    Emily's babies

    Emily and her brother, P.C. had themselves a Flowers in the Attic but in the barn. Honestly didn't think the eggs were fertilized. Ha! I was wrong. Those two won't be together again unless I can get the eggs away. Any ideas what the colors of the babies might be? Both parents are Blue Quail

    Beaker the Muscovy...boy or girl?

    This is our newest addition to my rescued ducks. Gave this one the name, Beaker, after the Muppet because that is the sound he/she is always making. Any idea if it is a boy or girl? I'm thinking it's full grown because it has figured out how to fly.

    Plucky Pekin Pals - a place to gush over these wonderful white birds

    My first bird is a Pekin duck that I kinda ended up with. I was going to try to rehome him but my family got rather attached. At the time my son had been bugging me for a bird (and I was thinking parakeet). I told him that if we kept the duck that would be his bird. So that is the...

    Brooding duck question...

    My Abby girl has been brooding over her eggs and has laid 9 so far. Her previous clutch (since we've had her) has been 8 eggs. How many can I expect her to lay and is it true that they may not all be fertile? Right now we aren't sure if Donald actually bred with her or not. I know he tried...
