I need help. My duck Sunny is broody and is insisting on sitting on eggs that aren't fertile.
I know I can just collect the eggs, and I always have. But now that she is broody, she gets very stressed if I collect the eggs and starts searching everywhere for them and quacking loudly. She is my only duck who does this, and out of my ducks she is the youngest and my baby, so it's heartbreaking to see her all stressed out.
So I've let her keep these since yesterday while I've been searching everywhere for someone that can sell me some fertile eggs that I can replace hers with. I know she wants to be a mom, I don't want to take that from her. I don't want her to sit on unfertile eggs and be sad when they don't hatch, but my search for eggs so far has been futile.
What should I do??
