Hi I bought a trio of mini silver apple yard about one year ago. They were meant to be ‘mini silver apple yard’ but I am not sure because they are definitely larger than my call ducks. Is it right? However, the main question is “Why are my Silver Appleyard’s babies white?” About 2 months ago...

Hi Miss Lydia, How are you? At 5:55 this morning I was able to check the only egg in the incubator. I noticed it has an external pip. It is 9:17 now and it seems that the crack is going around, which is great. I am not sure because I did not open to lift the lid, but I believe that it is what I...

Thank you so much!

Hi Miss Lydia How are you? Thanks for coming to rescue us again! Good to hear that. I suppose the best I can do now is just wait. I hope they will hatch ok. Btw, no new revelations regarding the gender of one of the geese. :-) Thanks again!

Hi I have a silver apple yard sitting on eggs. I am not sure how many days now, but after she went out for a bit of feeding I candled her eggs. I noticed that the ‘ducklings’ have made it to the air sac. How much time after that are they expected to reach the shell? I lost some ducklings before...

Yeah, I heard that about the wings when they are fighting. That gives me hope. I also notice Guido (the one I am sure is a boy because I’ve seen his ‘thing’) trying to put one of his foot on the back of the other. I still have hope. I will be posting more when something new (and hopefully...

Really! I hope you are right. That would be great. In some of their fights I noticed the (now) boy, Guido, putting one foot on the back of the other, Ganso (who I hope to be able to change the name to Gansa). lol

Will do!

Guess what?!!!!! I just found out that the one I bought believing to be a girl is actually a boy. I know that because it was exposing himself this morning. I hope the other one that was meant to be a boy turn to be a girl. What a twist! lol

Thanks Lydia and sorry for the late reply. The silver apple yard are 1 boy and two girls. One of the girls is now sitting on 10 eggs. If they fight over girls, I think it would be over the cal ducks because they always fight on the same spot which is near where the call ducks are lock in. I...

Oh my God! I have two silver appleyard peeping right now. I don’t know when they started since I just noticed this morning. It looks like they started a bit earlier than what I was expecting. I was expecting them to hatch on Thursday and today is only Monday. I hope they hatch. I am really...

Hi Miss Lydia The Appleyards are one boy and two girls. One of them has been laying eggs, but I think she stopped a couple of days ago (not sure). She did not sit on the eggs, so I suppose that it was a bit of a waste. I put some eggs in a incubator, but not sure if they will hatch, but I know...

If Spring is the mating Season, I will have to wait until September to find out. Here in Australia is the beginning of Autumn. Still quite warm.

Here, Down Under, is actually Autumn. It is still hot, but it is mean to be Autumn. They have not had any spring yet. They first spring is going to be in September.

Hi I got two Chinese goslings in November 2017 when they were about 4 weeks old. I was told that they were not related and that the smaller one was a girl which I call Guida and the larger one a boy called Ganso. Time has passed and they are now over 5 months old. They are now developing their...

Oh my God! That post made me very nervous. I have three call duck eggs in the incubator and tomorrow will be day 26. I hope they start hatching and that I won’t have to intervene at all. Not sure if I will be able to sleep tonight.
