Call Ducks or Bantams...Crazy Animals Around the Farm

[chickens really]

Note to self...
I will never again raise a Duckling with Chicks again in my lifetime..
Definitely this Duck is a messy water spoiler/ spiller.
I have to clean the Brooder today before coccidiosis begins to thrive. Brooder is wet in certain areas..
Today I'll put them all outside in the nursery pen. Although that will get wet from Clover..

I'm confused.....Lisa is in the nest box every day and when she leaves I find an almost white egg and a cream egg later on in the day in the same nest. I definitely don't know if Lisa is even laying at all....Maybe she just likes sitting on the eggs left by other Hens?
Friday my eggs are due to hatch so I guess I'll know then?

Got the quails back yesterday.

I’m really not sure... Aryeh the Quail now perches on my fingers. I still haven’t checked for which are males and females. I should probably do that today.

Did the people think they were going to be lap pets?
