My Rouen duck has gone broody, sitting on 23 eggs
I wonder is that too much, she can cover them all though. What do you guys think ?
The eggs are from both her and the magpie duck with the khaki x Rouen drake. Gonna have some interesting mixes.

Train them with a bowl love. Thats the only bowl you treat them with. Thats what I do with mine and they dont peck.

I'll try it!!

Omgoss! I love them and their names.

I'm housing my parents dogs in my stalls while they figure out living arrangements but they come over every morning to feed them and my dad asked how they were doing this morning... told him to come see and he loved the new setup! He also is in love with my new ones. He had very bad experience with chickens as a kid so he's been hesitant to go in the shed but he's warming up to them. New chicks always make people smile I've noticed...

I was watching a YouTube video of momma hens with their babies...

It sent the babies to sleep...

The older ones came and all sat down and listened very intently. The was no sounds in my coop but the video.

My oldest son has no fear! So he came in scooped up BBQ who had just pecked his young brother and as he held her told her she needed to be nice and calm down or BBQ would be drizzled on her Him and I then picked up several of the large ones, checked crops and feet and looked for signs of pecking or mites. We got through 6 of them when they decided they were down
Everyone looked good but Ketchup looks like she's missing some feathers on her chest. I'm going to take a another look tomorrow and see if it's a scrape. Or later tonight when hubs gets home so i can run and get some spray.

And I put Nilky in the addition as well but made her her own little section for her and the babies! I think she is happy to be near all her old friends..
