Duckling?????

[TroyerGal]

Can anybody tell me if this is an embryo?

 

[widelacing]

Yes it is. Lesson hard learned: Make sure that is not happening before you sell/give away eggs.

 

[TroyerGal]

do you think the eggs being slightly buried under woodchips on a over 80 degree day could cause an embyo to develop? our ducks JUST started laying... and we collect the eggs every day

 

[widelacing]

Maybe, but that looks like it has been developing for a couple days at least.

 

[TroyerGal]

Really??!!!!!! That's very odd... We've gotten 2 like this... New layer stuff??

 

[widelacing]

No, they're hiding them well i guess....
