    Blue/black eggs

    Hi, I've thrown out 10 blue/black eggs from my welsh harlequins HUGE clutch (think she's sitting on everyone's eggs). I'm nervous to go in and start moving things around, but thinking I might need to take everything out, clean the coop and replace. We are 20 days in.

    Duck sitting on EVERYONE'S eggs??

    Potbelly pig lactating and not pregnant.

    My potbelly is about 10 months old. I got her in December. She is my only pig and I live in a suburban neighborhood so my neighbors definitely don't have any pigs. She is lactating! What is going on?

    Pekin Broody sometimes?

    Pekin broody 3 mornings in a row, then these last 2 days back to normal. What's going on? I candled them and 4 looked fertile but probably dead since Mom hasn't been sitting on them. Haven't had babies yet, so new to this! TIA!

    Cayuga eggs not black?!

    Hey all! I just got my first 3 eggs from my Cayuga! I know it's her because I felt the pelvic bones of the others, and she's the eldest. But I have read cayuga eggs should be black.

    Ducks staying in coop?!

    Hi all! My ducks have started staying in the coop for hours after I open the door in the morning. Basically until I chase them out. This am i opened the door at 8 and stayed in until 11 when I chased them out. They have started doing this the last week or so. Weird?

    Ducks in coop during day?

    Hi all! My ducks just recently started hanging in their coop (door open) during the day. They never used to do this, just wondering if it's normal. I live in Tx. And it's up to 106 today! As you can see the coop has plenty of ventilation and I have a fan pointed on it. Just curious. Thanks!

    Darker heads

    Hi! 3 of my welsh harlequin ducklings (almost a month old) have darker heads. Is this any indication of sex? I know you can tell once they start to quack but they are still chirping. The suspense is killing me! Lol

    Do I have 3 drakes?!

    Hi all! This is my first time with duckies, these are supposed to be welsh harlequin ducks, but I don't think they were bred to standard, so I couldn't tell by their beaks color when I got them. Also, I supposedly got them at 1 day old but I'm suspicious it was more like a week. If I had gotten...
