Call Ducks Finally Hatched

[Bryam]

all of mine that are girls have showed it at 3 weeks with that loud and sharp QUACK my boys too like till  week 5 

also all my smaller call ducklings tended to be the girls. 

Any ideas on the sexes of my 12 days old ducklings? The black and white one in the front of the picture is really small, while the blue bibbedin the back of the picture, is huge!

Dead ducklings in the shell, fully formed, don't know why?




Eggtopsy'd the others, they had apparently died a few days ago. 4 ducklings hatched out of 16 eggs. Think I'll get a Brinsea incubator and get rid of the Little Giant type.

So sorry, but at least you got 4 healthy call babies. next year more!!!

Thank you!

she really is super tiny, but the fastest thing I've seen on 2 webs, lol... she came from another BYC'ers greys...
At 2 weeks I think the only sure way is vent sexing... in a couple more weeks the girls should start quacking loudly while the boys have lower, quiter raspy quacks...

Eeeeeeebeep, the fastest thing you've seen on 2 webs. And she is tiny. I am in love with her. How do you function around her? I'd never have my hands off of her.

I don't have any idea and the only tidbit I can offer is they are extraordinarily cute.

Oh no, I am sorry that happened. I am glad you did get the 4 though.

 

[Bryam]

Yes, I must agree!!!!!

My Cali baby isn't breech! I'm so relieved! It had internally pipped, and considering today is hatch day, I went ahead and made a safe hole! I'm hoping it is out by this time tonight! I'm praying all goes well with my little one!

So I finally figured out why my calls don't seem as noisy as everyone keeps talking about...

I have a gorgeous group of ALL boys!! lol... every one I hatched from my first batch are beautiful drakes...

@clousert updated pics of your granddrakes, lol...

If they are all boys its no wonder you haven't heard the loud noise yet hahhaha apparently it's the girls that so all the shouting. Lol
