Yep, Im glad I have my duck room with a fence down the middle. Babies on 1 side big ducks on the other. I think 1 of the dig ducks has just started laying. Last week 1 day I only got 2 eggs, I usually get 5...then I got 4, 4, 4, and 3 days ago I got this DIFFERENT egg...very pourus...spelling mistake there me thinks. I can tell Fionas egg coz its VERY WHITE when cleaned, so I htink 1 might of stopped laying...Fiona... and I have a new layer. I havent had any form Fiona for a week now going by the eggs when I clean them. But anyway, at least when the babies start laying I will know. Im also going to open up the hallway of the house and the bathroom (its quite a big room with the bath still in it) for the new ducks this year and I can split the bathroom in 2, so I can have a room for the Whites and a space for the emery and space for babies I have hatched. DH doesnt know all this just yet...but I did mention we need to open the hallway so I have somewhere to put the babies when I hatch...Im soooo glad I have this old house here. oh and can I just brag a bit...my 5 ducks that are laying laid 136 eggs this month compared to 124 in Nov and 106 in Oct...so my egg count is going up in the cold weather.
