Cuckoo / Double nrst

[Paddlehands]

So this is my first egg year and seemingly duckling.
My Swedish went broody first
Then my magpie... and recently it seems the khaki....

Even before being obviously broody the khaki was laying beside the magpie (and khaki would adopt the egg) or in the magpies nest during break. I used to remove the egg... but recently there is a duck sandwich.

The khaki sitting on top of the magpie ( I did not manage a picture yet) or like pies in o e pod.

Is co nesting normal?

It happens, and sometimes it is successful, and sometimes it is not. Hopefully this will result in a successful hatch.

I have a cayuga drake so I really was curious what a khakuga or cayambell would look like. It probably is less obvious on the Swedish and Khaki . I had collected two khaki eggs after I saw tge drake at her and was organising an incubator when the Swede got broody. I gave her the eggs and she accepted them... so there is Khaki aggs in both nests...

I don't have the heart to candle them ....its about 2 weeks now but I only have a short time to do it and don't want to upset the mothers either
