Quote: That was the danger! My kids talked me into ducks, so I bought 2 and a spare. Grew up to be a drake and 2 lovely hens. THe male Oreo is good at his job. He guards his girls on the nests and when they come out for food, he is ready to greet her! He never misses a chance. LOL

DH said they would taste great! I think he forgot that he won't butcher them! LOL

Added to my now 4 bators this week were 78 eggs on the 1st (turkeys, BYM with silkies, quail, button quail, pheasants, lemon cuckoo & lavender orps, BCM & a mystery duck), 87 eggs on the 3rd (australorps, white leghorns, golden buffs, barred rocks, seramas, OEGB, nankins, cornish, & some mystery eggs). 50 more arrived today from DMRippy (1 of my IA enablers...LOL) to be set tomorrow & included EE, OE & SBEL. Still to arrive are 12+ Ancona Ducks, 9 Rouen/Muscovies, 12+ Lemon Cuckoo Orps, 12+ Runners, 30 assorted chicks & ducks from Mrhein277 & 6+ phoenix.

Picking up Bourbon Reds & possibly some others tomorrow night in partial exchange for a pair of blue slate turkeys.

Can someone PLEASE take away my bators (NOT!!!!)

Nice selection there!!!

I'll be loading my Henny Penny with a few dozen eggs from my BLue Americana rooster. and bourbon red turkey tonight.

Found a customer for the duck eggs, so I'm done with setting duck eggs. Hoping a few will hatch from the few in the incubator now.

Some of those EE may not develop so don't get too excited... remember there are new SBEL pullets in that pen too so you will get some second gen SBEL if they develop

Let me know if you get any white chicks from those blue eggs, they would most likely be 2nd gen SBEL. I have not hatched any of those yet.
