Quackers got out of the nest. i heard her getting out so i put duckie in the spare bedroom so he wouldn't rape her lol. and she was in the tub and i got to candle my eggs

i thought she had 19 in her nest.. nope 21. what an awesome girl. this is her first clutch.

i took 2 eggs out. i didn't see anything!! not veins no little blobs, nothing. they were tiny eggs, i didn't expect anything from them..

so... so far we have 19!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think i got them all. i was in a hurry since she was trying to get out of the tub. poor baby.

Are you serious????????? 19??????? wow- that is great... nnow only 4 weks to go... and you will see what all those little veins and blobs turn into.

Congrats to you and Quackers and Duckie... WOW..19..I still cant get over that...Great fertility.

well they were doin it like bunnies HAHAHAH

i know i thought like 11 at the most.. sooo now the question is...

how many do we think will hatch now..?????? new contest!!!!!!!!!

i am sooooooooooooooooooooo excited right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i thought forsure the older ones would go bad

I think 15 will hatch. 2 will break and 2 will stop developing.

 

[lovesduckies]

lol what a detailed guess lol..

any other guesses??

 

[chasing ducks]

Out of 19, I'd say 13 new duckies would be hatching. Give a margin for error, though I am hoping all hatch for you!

 

[lovesduckies]

thanks!!! i hope they all hatch too!!! that would be so much fun!!!!!!!! i am soo excited.. i believe they are due around may 9th. that's too far away.

i am going to go insane!!!!

that looks like an insane chicken to me

I hope all 19 hatch for you... But experience has shown me its hard to get a perfect hatch rate... HHHMMM I will say 16 will hatch...
