I may have to-poor guy. I do have a docile drake that I'll put him with tomorrow so he'll have company.
This sucks...
On a lighter note-another baby moved from the incubator into the brooder. I now have 6 ducklings in the incubator-they're all maniacs.

Yay for the babies. Mine are over here just singing away and splashing in their water bowl. Silly little things

I'm sure enjoying my new ducklings.
Pretty sure we have 2 White, 2 Black Bib and a Butterscotch(and Osama-the Rouen terrorist of the brooder).

Ive never dealt with any rouens. Are they all stinkers?

Out of my 6 I have two black bibs and I dont know what else. I candled my butterscotch eggs today. Out of 8 eggs, 5 show veining so far.

He was at first-he wanted to pull on their bills, feet, wings, hair, anything. Then he started teaching them how to eat and drink and he snuggles with them.
If any of them get flipped over-he pushes them back on their feet-it's pretty amazing to watch. He thinks their HIS babies or something.

That's great on your Butterscotch eggs! I haven't had a chance to even candle mine yet.
Osama cracked one of them when he was screeching around the incubator.

Thats funny. My silkie babies did that with chicks that I put in the brooder with them that where 2 weeks younger. They corralled them to the feed dish and water dish. It was funny. Looked like they were rustling chicks

Well at least you have more than one butterscotch egg.

Hopefully he didn't use them all as soccer balls.
Guess I'm gonna hit the sack.
Thanks for listening to me whine, Sonja.
