Call Ducks Finally Hatched

[clousert]

My sweet new baby still can't hold her head up this morning. Not sure what to do. She can move it, cleans her under feathers but can't pick it up or hold it upright. Any suggestions?

Wow. He's really early. Hope he's ok.

Today's day 25 so hopefully he waits until tomorrow to hatch, hatch. That'll only put him 2 days early. He was chirping, so sounds good!

Oh ok. I thought last night you said they had 5 days left. 2 days isn't too bad but still not ideal. Mine was 2 days early. She's weaker than others I've hatched but is doing much better today. Wish she would hold her head up better but still better than yesterday.

I probably did say that. Hope she gets better too!!

I'm starting to get ******. Ordered call eggs off eBay, the ad said they would ship Tuesday. They didn't ship until Wednesday. They are still not here. NOT happy.

Thanks. Sucks about your eggs. Same with some wheaten marans eggs I ordered. Were supposed to come today but tracking shows Monday now. Hoping they'll be ok over the weekend.

I'm having hatching fever right now. Have 70+ chicks already in the brooder, a dozen eggs in the incubator and just order 3 dozen more eggs to come this week LOL. At least by April I will be able to pick the select few that I will be keeping to add to my own flock and they will be ready to lay by the fall. I love watching them all grow up too. It's the best part

I think my impatience is rubbing off on my Anconas. Have one egg externally pipped this morning.

Hope it's not a chicken. HAHHA

Alright peach!! a little while back I had asked you if you wanted more eggs and that I would start collecting, you never did answer So I went and put the eggs in the bator and now out of 11 and it's only day 3, I can see EIGHT Growing. OMG, I don't think I need more ducks. LOL

Lol I figured I am not going to get better luck than with the last batch I got from you. 3 different colored babies and they are all beautiful!!!

Haha I know me too. I've decided to stick with ducks though, chickens just aren't my thing.

If my eggs don't show up today I'm demanding more,
