Howdy All, I have a trio of rouens that have been laying in OVERTIME.. I also have one Black Swede that has just started laying. She has only produced a few eggs, but my rouens for some reason have become laying machines. Currently I have 14 eggs, of which I know that all but 3 of them...

I have set around 30 duck eggs, Khaki Campbell, Welsh Harlequins, Golden Layer, Mallard, and a few mystery eggs.. I have two fold problems. The eggs were packaged very nicely, however USPS decided to play kickball or something with the box because when I opened it 6 of the eggs were broke and...

Our two Rouen's brood in a large tupperware bin with a wire mesh top and a brooder light sits on top in my mine and my wife's bedroom. At 2:30am this morning I heard one of my ducks (the female Dolly) making a huge racket. Lots of peeping. So I looked over a the brooder didn't see anything...

Ok... i got some duckies from TSC 3 of them are the same which I was told were mallards. However after reading, and understanding that most of the folks at TSC have never seen a Live duck before their first shipment, I understand that mallards have only ONE line across their eye and non under...
