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

[Soon2BChixMom]

Checked on my peepers. Why do ducklings peep btw? They are eating and pooping. So, all is good. Brooder temp looks good. I cannot be out there all of the time, especially when I work, so seeing how it is going without me interferring too much.

Oh no no no! I’m excited for you too!
It is really hard to discern movement, and my pipped egg is still wiggling, no real progress though. I’m sure I’m worrying over nothing, can’t I spill milk and this has just been really unlucky.
I have a few eggs looking groty though and wondered if it was a sign that they died.

Yikes those Blacks look dead?...Pull out eggs and Candle them..

Took a bunch of pictures of the girls out foraging with my dad’s camera. Obviously they aren’t as professional looking as @MillersFarm pictures. I’ll post the pictures once I have my dad transfer them to his computer and email them to me.

Then how do they keep the chicks alive for their first 8 weeks of life if they don’t use heat?

Mother nature. They must do something to brood outside. I have electricity, so never looked into it. Lol

Calling to Momma because they had one. It takes time and a sad thing for them to go through. I never sell Momma raised till weaned...

Wendy’s eye has bubbles again! Should I wipe them away and apply more Terramycin?

I hate saying things because I never know if I sound like a mean person or not?...

They aren't peeping a lot. Just didn't know ducks peeped. They peep less than the chicks I have seen in the bins at tsc.
Speaking of tsc. I was in one yesterday- not my local one - and a lot of their chicks had poopy butts. I know the people at my tsc take care of them right away - I was there once when they were checking chicks. It was so obvious, I almost pointed it out. But, I was in hurry to meet up to get my ducklings.

Wipe them away, If you feel the need to you can put a small amount on but I'd wait until tomorrow.
