Any one ever known of this?

Don't birds turn their eggs in the nest during the incubation time? Or is that alligators? Anyway, guess she had a busy afternoon!

Yep, they turn their eggs, but she moved the entire nest over a good foot or more.

I think also it was the topic of your post that got me mixed up --

last I heard, goat_boy had a duck in a small kennel sitting on eggs too!

Well I think I know the cause now.

I am home sick today, and I went outside to check on eeryone, when I called out to P.J. ( my month + duckling) I dint here her/him peep to me. So i went in and crawled into the duck house and still didnt see her, but i heard her, so i look into the entrance of the kennel where my lil mama is with all her eggs, and both she and her duckling p.j. are sitting on the nest!

Usually , lil mama wants to keep ppl out and away from her eggs, and it was just so beautiful to see her and her baby sitting on the eggs together

But, is this sign? Is p.j. a she , and is she having maternal instincts so young?
Or is it a he and he is just pshycing me out?
