Weight data for buff Orpingtons & Pekin Ducks?
Hey all! I'm just curious, and figured I as well ask. I weigh my chicks and ducklings the the same time daily, so far that's 6 Buff Orpingtons and 4 Pekin ducks (all female). Does anyone else do this or similar? Would this data be of use to anyone? I'd be more than happy to share it if it...- Mirrium

Duck egg incubation question
We noticed tonight during candling that one egg seems to be stuck to the membrane or have some sort of issue with the veins. It almost seems like there may be blood inside the egg. If anyone has any info on what this could be, I'd love to hear it. Should we remove the egg? Hope it hatches? The... -

It hatched about an hour ago and isn’t standing yet which I assume is normal? It’s in the incubator still by itself it’s the only egg that we had make it. I just noticed...- Maddiiee

Why do my ducks nibble me so much?
I have 2 male Pekín ducks I raised as babies (as well as a female muscovey but she’s on the skidding side. I didn’t raise her.) And they LOVE to nibble on my kinda hard.

New to incubating pekins
We have 2 females that lay 1 egg each per day. Males are very frequent with them so we believe the eggs are all fertile. I've read you should bring the eggs to room temp before placing in the incubator. I have a few questions I haven't found answers to: 1. How long can they sit before starting...- 10PekinDucks

Injury on female’s side
Any guesses on what could have caught her side? I noticed the bloody patch this AM when I let her out. I have to get ready for work, so I can’t investigate. I’m thinking maybe there’s some hardware cloth poking in, but it would be much higher on her. Any suggestions from the BYC crew? Could her...- Maddog_photog
