Muscovy are growing!!!!!!!(updated again w/ Pics)

[MysticalMom]

I'm soooooo excited. Lucille, one of my Muscovy females has been setting and her babies are hatching. I can see at least 3 so far.

Our first babies!!!!! Gosh Lucille looks ragged doesn't she? Poor girl. Motherhood is hard.

Ok - that's very exciting but you gotta include some pictures PLEASE.

I love Muscovys! If I can't get my male to make fertile eggs I will be pm'ing you for eggs!

Snakeman is trying to get pics now. And rustywoman... ALL of my girls are laying so I don't think that will be a problem.

I thought there were only 4, but going through the pics I see there are 5! She only had 8 eggs.... not bad. Can ya tell we're a little excited.

So sweet!!! I wish we had a pond or something so we could have some ducks. Congrats on your new babies!

 

[Germaine_11.20]

I'm so jealous.

But I am thrilled for you.

I don't have a pond, just some baby pools. You don't need a pond for most ducks. My big baby pools do just fine.

And thanks rustywoman.. Snakeman and I are just tickled pink about it. We have become the crazy duck people.

Oh and The Freckled Hen...

I tried to see if the other 3 eggs had hatched this evening but it cooled off really nice tonight and she has them well covered. I'll have to see tomorrow.
