Mamma Goose hatches duck eggs

[Miss Lydia]

I do that with mine but don’t over do meal worms can give them the runs when tiny if they eat too many.

I will probably do that today. It's been over 3 weeks. I did, however put a chicken egg under her not sure if it's fertile. I'll candle that one too.

Have you shined

Thank you! I have been adding the electrolyte powder to their water and have specific duckling food for them. Flies? Wow! I'll look to see if our feed store has them! How about crushed up dried mealworms?

I didn't try mealworms, but I'm sure they would love them! They also loved live earthworms and snake worms

I'm not a worm person

 

[DuckyDonna]

me either. I've seen a worm thing that had a flat head like a hammer head shark

We have those but they're more of a pine beetle larvae. They're white and kind of gross. However, I'm sure the ducks and chickens would LOVE them!
