My muscovy hen decided to hatch one last clutch. She's been sitting on them for a while and wouldn't let me near to count the eggs.
Yesterday, she brought out 10 little babies
There were 2 dud eggs, (nasty and rotten), one that had a full grown duckling that was dead, and one duckling that looked like he had gotten stepped on
But the other ten are active and seem healthy!
Here are a few pictures. Looks like I have some interesting colors this time! Any guesses on what they will look like? I tried to get a pic of each different colored duckling.
There are 2 like this:
There's one like this:
2 like this that are 2 different shades of brown with lighter colored bellies:
1 like this, chocolate colored:
2 like this, my last ones like this turned out to be lavender I think:
and 2 like this, I think they might be barred because they are white with slightly gray tails, but I'm not sure. It almost looks like they have gray heads, so maybe more lavenders?
