I had a broody duck. She went broody on the 24th of May. Everything was going well as far as I could tell until last night. I came come late and shut the ducks up. I could not tell that the broody was not there. This was after dark and and she is a black duck. This morning when I let everyone out she was gone. There was no sign of anything. No feathers or bodies or anything. A drake and another hen were in the same cage that the broody hen should have been in.
I don't know what to do with these eggs. I am not sure if they are any good any more. I don't have a brooder set up, in fact I don't even have a brooder, but I can run to TSC and get one.
Is there any hope? Should I just throw these eggs out. I hate to think of developing lil ducks in there and just pitching them.
