    Humidity up and temp down for hatching........???

    I am prepping for hatching day. If I am going to put the humidity up and temp down in the incubator.....won't that effect the other eggs that are not ready yet? I do not have the option of having 2 incubators, so how would one go about this?

    Young Magpie not going in pool?

    Does anyone know why my 1 month old Magpie Duck won't go in her pool like she used to? We have a bigger pool that she will stay in if I take her and put her in there..... but she used to go in the smaller pool that she has in her coop, and now she doesn't. Nothing has changed with the small...

    Question on determining sex of Magpies

    I understand that there are the different sounds..... The man says he was giving me a male and a female......and had listened to them. But I hadn't heard any actual quaking until today. Is there one gender that tends to start quacking before the other? Thanks - New duck owner and enjoying it!!!
