    What does a duck do when

    What does a duck do when its best friend since birth dies? I am expecting to lose one of my two girls any time now from what I am guessing is a busted egg inside of her.

    Just Hatched

    This is my first time ever hatching ducks or anything and I have two questions. Two out of 5 have hatched so far, about 2 hours ago. Is it okay if they are bashing around the other 3 eggs? They are pretty active little guys. Second, 2 of the last 3 have externally pipped but have not made...

    Odd Duck behavior?

    I have two Female Buffs. Recently, like right now, they have been standing on one leg right in front of the water with their beaks tucked into their wings just sleeping there.

I've been incubating egg 1 for 2 days and egg 2 has not been incubating. The third egg was a bad egg and I broke it open and...
