This is my new hen princess. She is a very tiny penciled call hen. She has befriended my broody babies. She’s literally the same size as my two week old calls lol! :gig

You know you’re a crazy duck lady, when you have a duck sleeping in your utility sink… but it was cold… :oops:

ps sorry for the overload of pics, I may or may not be totally obsessed with her! :lau

They are Runner drake over Cayuga. I was waiting for all whites like our last 2 hatches but I was pleasantly surprised.

I've got 8 big ducks, 4 ducks and 4 drakes. The youngest 4 aren't at breeding age just yet and there's 2 drakes and 2 ducks in that lot. Sadly 3 of the drakes are going in the freezer as soon as we can. But one of the big girls is sitting on close to 20 of hers and the other girls eggs. The other girl went broody but acted like a school girl and as soon as the drakes called out for her she got off the nest so I put her eggs under the other one and so far she's going great.

That's a big clutch! Impressive that she's able to cover them all. Good luck with the upcoming hatch. When is the approximate hatch date?

Yeah, I didn't think she'd be able to do it but I haven't seen any sticking out of her. I can't remember, I'll have to check my calendar tonight. I'm pretty sure it's only a week or so from the other ones though. Hopefully I'll remember to check and I'll let you know then.

Yeah, that is a lot of eggs under her! I have a runner duck setting on a clutch of 6 eggs right now. I hope she can hatch them. :fl

I can't get any current pictures of them because they are dirty little piggies... 🤨
