I have had my ducks for nearly a year now. started with 2 babies, who turned out to be a girl and a boy.
So now an expert.... not! bought 3 more babies. who turned out to be 2 boys 1 girl . Doh!
So my flock is 3 boys 2 girls.... I know this is wrong but its so hard to re-home drakes and I wont see them go to a bad home so I'm managing ... just....mating habits just awful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My real problem is.....My girls went broody while we were away on vacation. My duck sitter was so lame and didn't take their eggs grrrrrrr. I have no time or date of when the eggs were laid, just guessing 3 week ish!!!!
I have just scared mums off nest and candled eggs what I see in all remaining eggs ( there was 10 but now only 5) is 2 thirds black mass and 1 3rd air sack. Are these viable embrios? I would never forgive my self if I killed their babies.
I just want to know WHAT TO DO.. MY GIRLS KEEP ATTACKING ME !!!!!
