Call Ducks Finally Hatched

I put one out. The size, texture, and color are very similar. I just didn't have the heart to leave her without her first little egg. With it being her first, I don't think it will effect her broodiness whatsoever. I'll see if she has another for me tomorrow morning :)
 
Any updates on the heat pack or number of eggies for me yet?
I bought heat packs they are being shipped. I have got an egg a day but they keep freezing!!!! I have only one egg that I caught before freezing. Anyone have any suggestions on how to keep them from freezing? There is a heat lamp in their pen but they keep laying away from the heat lamp.

Did she produce another little egg?

Yes, keep them separated in their own pen/brooder.

They are seperated and only have 8sq ft of space and they pick the coldest spot to lay their eggs. They have a little outdoor area if it is warm that day I will let them out (Like above 15 degrees. Like thats warm. lol) But, then again how can you keep eggs from freezing when the high for today is -10 degrees WITHOUT WINDCHILL!!!!
 
Does anybody on here ever just look at their birds and be blown away by their cuteness? I mean, it's the whole thing: looks, sounds, personalities, quirks. Do you guys get it?
