I'm glad to hear that! :)

Awe thanks Julie Bird! I've missed you too! Life just gets so busy sometimes... I hope you've been well! :)

I certainly will! I would be too excited not to! :) I hope your flock is well and you too!

Hello Deb! I figured I would let her try. The people I got her from have always incubated her eggs, so I'm hoping she'll figure it out on her own. We'll see... :)

Hello everyone! I haven't been on for awhile and thought I would stop in and say hi. :) It's been quite a winter here in Minnesota. It went from being in the 60's in December and everyone still swimming in their pools to negative Temps. It's finally bearable again now. Gidget started laying...

I agree! I read somewhere on a call duck breeders thread, that he never assisted in hatching or rarely. I guess this guy is well known for his quality of call ducks. I can't remember his name though. He said he didn't assist because the ones that hatch and survive are strong and are healthy. He...

Huh, I didn't know that. I knew they laid less eggs just not about the more typical the less likely to produce ducklings...

I may let her after I find out if she's a good layer or not. I was told she was. How many eggs to your calls lay in a season typically? The thing with letting her hatch is that we would be keeping only a few and selling the rest. I don't think it would be fair to them if they were terrified of...

Yep, I've heard that. I believe it has to do with their tiny bill size. It's hard to reach into that air cell to pip. The smaller the bill the harder the hatch. Assistance is needed sometimes too.

We are certainly hoping for some babies! I was told that Gadget has never been given the opportunity to hatch her own eggs. They always incubated. Which is more than likely what we will end up trying to do. I say try, because I have no clue. Although I've been reading up on it. So we'll see. I...

Awe, I love the determined look! Wobbles the tiny airplane... Hehe. I love his BIG personality! :love

Kaine sounds like quite the character. I think his name is fitting... lol I love hearing about everyone's duck personalities. :) Thanks for sharing!

It just cracks me up that they don't realize they're tiny. You hit the nail on the head when you said they were small ducks with a big personality! How's Wobbles doing with his "balancing act?" Lol ; I seen Gadget head bobbing Gidget like crazy this morning in their pool outside. I even seen...

Haha, okay! So tell me about your Kaine. Is he a stinker to you, or just other ducks? Or both?

Yep, Ollie and Oscar. They are my sweetest boys. They really don't know much about being geese. They are more like toddlers who chew everything. They LOVE their people. Most geese are excellent foragers. Mine, however, are not. The want you to pick the grass for them and eat it from your hand. I...

lol! Okay, maybe it's retinal reflection but you might change your mind if you stepped foot in his pen! He's all cute when he's dangling, but he goes for skin!

The geese are still like giant mischievous kids. No hormones yet. I believe those will kick in early this spring. Thank goodness. One hormonal drake is enough for now.

I have been debating this within myself today. I think it could be a little of both. Lol

They really are! My favorite is when they come out of their houses in the morning. They stretch and flap their wings all while on the tips of their webs. It just looks so cute!

Just for you @Julie Bird
