I did take the baby out of his shell and found him to be completely malformed. I believe this is due to bad incubation. When peep first started to lay, we had many nights below freezing here.... That being said, Peep is back at the pond chasing her beau... A wild duck!!! She follows him everywhere!

AWEEEEE how sweet, he didnt stand guard? Sometimes when the female lays, the males are right there guarding. LOL

I see LOTS OF WHITE. lol

The white are 1 pekin female(big momma) 3 pekin/call, Peep is farthest right and wild man on far right... Peeps love. His wild female is sitting a clutch behind my duck barn!!! And it's actually big momma who would love babies, but she has never laid an egg and is too submissive to take one...
