➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

[Ursuline Chick]

13 weeks today.

If they don't look like this by now, they are pullets

The Mini is adding water to the pool now.
I am going to go live in a few minutes.
I will be away from the computer so I won't be able to post the exact link to the live.
If you want to tune if watch for it to start here:

Ive noticed a couple common denominators among several of us following this thread... (besides the obvious we all keep poultry in general)....

1) most of us have a mush face doggie (SO CRAZY!) and
2) we all have chicks or eggs on the way, eggs incubating or chicks that just hatched.

No wonder this thread has got the flow!

I think you might be onto something here...

What pretty packaging!
My 3 year old would mistake them for candy and totally try to eat these.

That is EXACTLY what I thought! Looks like fancy mini Cadbury egg packaging.
I would probably be the one to accidentally eat them lol.

I just can't have loud noise makers. Like real roosters or yakking ducks.

You better get ready. Your yellow EE cockerel is standing out from the ladies at 9 weeks. Pictures coming, I know.

@Tesumph - Kiki cursed me with a cockerel. Be careful, she might have done the same for you. You want an Ideal EE cockerel?

I like the young ones running around the garden eating bugs, but I'm worried they will start going after the cucumbers & tomatoes. They are FLIGHTY! I think I should have got some calmer demeanored ones to raise with these 6. Oh, well. Integration with the hens soon. I've got a few things to settle.

@PirateGirl power pole guys showed up today to plant new power poles. Cut half the sunflowers down for access. The hens are going crazy pulling the seeds out of the heads. They don't last long. I don't have anywhere to store these to dry. The last ones we tried, molded badly in the garage. I should try hanging on up in the run like a cabbage ball, but the seeds fall out when bumped.

HEY, come watch the duckies swim. Don’t miss the finale you guys!

First thing that came to mind was to put them on the roof
