Yes, you should give a Broody Mom her own space and you click on over to the Broody Duck Thread, that's where you'll find lots of help from people with Broody Ducks!

Did u seperate the duck that was going to hatch the ducks from the rest of ur ducks?

I agree u should separate mommies from the others! but I didnt my broody duck had the so well hidden I didnt find them till they started hatching!

Search for Amiga's pic of the corner she made for her Broody. It is very close to what I use here, and GQ has some wonderful buckets that she uses. But get on over to the new 2014 Broody Thread.
