It won't turn into anything unless it's sat on or incubated. Otherwise, it's no different than any other egg.

Sorry, I meant to update everyone but I've been so busy! An almost four year old daughter, almost 2 year old twin boys, husband who travels for Union ironwork, 3 dogs, 3 cats, 3goats, a turkey, 10 chickens, 8 newly hatched chicks, 2 four month old ducks, 9 one month old ducklings, 10 more eggs...

I am most certainly not risking it again. If they got too cold and I caused the problem, I will never forgive myself. I was checking on eggs my broody hen abandoned and I knocked a flashlight ontop of one of the eggs and it was a chick that was almost completely developed and we had to put it...

I add raw ACV to all my animals water on a daily basis. I had Brewers yeast to their feed as well.

They're about 50% feathered.

Usually I have them out all day if it's warm enough. They have access to swim and it's shallow enough that they get out and fluff out. It is so shallow that they usually splash all the water out in a minute or two and then I don't refill it until later in the day. Today they were only out for...

They were. I had them in a roasting pan with a couple inches of water and they went for a quick dip. They do everyday. Today is the hottest day so far. One is definitely dead but the other one that I thought was dead too is starting to stand but is so out of it. Is it possible they got tired and...

I have no idea. That crossed my mind but it's so hot out today. They have been out in the same conditions before and have done great. I have them under the heat lamp in their brooder now and the healthy ones are fluffing out but the one other is still acting funny and twitchy. Can't keep it's...

They are in a play pen in the pasture where my goats and chickens and other ducks have foraged for 6 months. Their heads are twitching and archinng backwards. They are weak and have no balance!!

One more has died and a few more are acting weird. I'm freaking. Out. I have no idea what has happened!!!

I NEED HELP IMMEDIATELY!!! We just put out our one month old welsh harlequin ducklings out in the play pen with a shallow pool (like we do all the time) and my husband came running in the house and said 3 out of 10 of them were hanging their heads and wouldn't stand up. In the last 10 minutes...

So sorry about your duckling! You did everything you could. I have lost 2 ducklings at 3 weeks from eye infections and incubated 9 jersey giant chicken eggs and only one hatched out only to die a week later from a bummed leg. This is all in the last 3 months. We have a small homestead because...

HELP!!!! I'm hoping someone will be able to tell me what breed my four month old ducks are. A family friend knew I was looking for Welsh Harlequin ducks so he bought 3 "welsh harlequin" ducklings from an animal auction and dropped them off while I was at work. They looked like Silver Appleyard...
