Almost bought some ducklings

[Miss Lydia]

In other words she has her hands full. You have others In the brooder?

There is one that hatched at midnight. It is a Rouen Runner

 

[Miss Lydia]

Can’t wait to see them. You’d think the little one would cozy up to that one.

 

[Texag87]

She said the Rouen was being mean to the Pekin

 

[Miss Lydia]

What and they just hatched?

 

[Texag87]

Rouen was hatched around midnight and the Pekin hatched after noon. Rouen was being real mean when I got home. We have one dead egg, one maybe dead, three still peeping 24 hours after external pip. To help or not to help? Magnolia Ducks always seems to have to help when she hatches our eggs

 

[Miss Lydia]

I cannot tell you if it’s time to help since I don’t hatch in a bator. How big is the external pip seems all I heard it can be much longer. You don’t want to help too soon. @Jpat. @Kiki

 

[Texag87]

Still just two

 

[Miss Lydia]

How precious!!

7 I think is a goner . The closest one is moving and peeping like crazy and the one with the big hole has not progressed all day. The far left one is peeping but has not broke the shell yet
