5/7 days I have incubator now are growing great one of the two that aren't growing I put in later than the rest of them so maybe it just hasn't started to grow yet I'm going to give it a couple more days before I toss it.
These are the eggs I am finding in the coop in the a.m. they are just big enough for maybe the yolk only I don't understand why she is laying such small eggs and then larger ones with soft shells in the pool. I am dumbfounded. Is this normal behavior for a young Peking Duck
I find a real itty bitty tiny a in the coop in the a.m. and then like I said I find a larger egg in the pool later that evening when I go to dump it why is she doing this?
Now for some reason my female duck share is laying her eggs in the pool the shells are really really soft she even laid an egg in the garage the other day while I was in there working on a birdhouse these eggs are larger in size and would be perfect for incubation. Any reason why she is doing this

Cool thank you now I will have to make a homemade incubator and hatch them so I can have some more little baby ducklings hip hip hooray. I love little baby ducklings. Thank you for your info
I'm with Ed I also would install poles in the Centre to support the chicken wire. I only have a small flock and a small run. but that's what I going to do so no more predators can get my chickens I lost one here about a week ago. Good luck to you
I'm a little bit confused. All the post I have read said that Pekin ducks don't start laying eggs until they are 7 months old at least. When I was cleaning out my duck pen this morning I found 4 small white eggs in there and my female duck Cher is just a little over 4 months old. Her and my male...
