    Help with single hatchling chick.......

    Chicken hen brooding duck eggs

    First time attempt at hatching here! I’ve hadn’t yet considered incubating/hatching eggs then my blue Wyandotte went broody about 4 weeks ago. I let her sit on 4 of our magpie duck eggs since we have male and female ducks. She’s been so dedicated and such a good broody hen so far. I’ve...
