I will, but you know how long it takes me to take and upload pictures...

Also, my one little crested drake has an off center crest. It's so funny looking! I just love the little guy. His name is little Moe.

Oh no! Ducks don't go in at night? I was planning on letting them free range, but I sure don't want to have to catch them every night.

By the way, my ducklings are getting lots of feathers.

I can't wait until they're completely feathered out. Then I'll try moving them in with the chickens.

I equate the ducks to toddlers. If they don't want to do it they throw a fit and quack and run away. You have not lived until you have chased ducks around the yard with a fishing net. My neighbors think I am a not job.

I will, but you know how long it takes me to take and upload pictures...

We have one that has a big crest off center and it has made his neck crooked from holding it up.

I'VE GOT A PIP!!! I'VE GOT A PIP!!!! Crap...it's off camera...(I'm recording for my daughter's school) It's kind of funny, it's one of the ones I marked with a question mark because I wasn't sure I had a chick in there.

just had another great idea!! Since I have never shipped eggs I would like to try an experiment. I'm making egg foam holders for my duck eggs and need someone to send them to...it will be just 2-4 eggs as an experiment and to keep cost down but what I need is for someone to volunteer to recieve them and then take pictures of the box on arrival then note air cells and condition of eggs then attempt to hatch them and if they hatch note the hatch rate and keep updated report here on BYC.

I'm doing this so that I can develop a safe/secure packing to ship eggs ...I believe that the ability to share our love (ok addiction) of hatching eggs be available to everyone on this site despite their location. I know that it sounds like i'm reinventing the wheel but I would like to be able send eggs knowing that they will arrive in the safest condition possible. now I know there was someone from Canada wanting ducks...
