My New Babiesss!!!!

[Rainstorm]

My bro picked up 6 eggs out of the field a week ago where he was mowing his work tractor and gaev them to his friend to hatch, well they must have been pretty close to hatching, 4 or 5 days later we get a call "come get these annoying things I cant stand them no more their all the away across the yard in a brooder and I still cant sleep for the blasted things"

So now I have 4 more babies, 2 didnt hatch

He also found a nest of white eggs that he had to mow that he says he saw a "duck" fly away from, his friend: "if a buzzard or gator hatches out of these you better move and change your number" LOL, the mallards had green'ish eggs, what "wild" breed could the white ones be? they havnt hatched yet

AWW! And not sure on the white eggs, the only wild ducks we ever have are mallards and one ro two scovies.

If they are wild ducks, then the white eggs might be either mallard or wood ducks. However, wood ducks don't typically lay their eggs on the ground, preferring instead to lay in the hollow of a tree. You might do a search for wild ducks in your area and try to narrow it down. Either way, congrats on your find.

Edit:

I don't think they would be snake eggs. If I am not mistaken, snakes lay soft shelled eggs, and they wouldnt be as large as duck eggs. So I think you can rule out snake eggs. More than likely, they are duck eggs if they are comparable in size to the other duck eggs. If they are smaller, it could be some kind of pheasant or grouse but I don't know what kind of land fowl you have in your area.

If the white eggs are large and just a bit off white maybe with a touch of green here and there then you might have Muscovies esp. there in FL.

where he works and mows is in like those big unused cow pastures, we've never seen muscovys at all out here except in orlando near the houses,

is wood ducks legal to have? I dunno nothing about em

And yeah snake eggs are soft shelled and muchhh smaller and oval size (I tried hatching one when most of a nest got squished, 1 cute baby ring snake came out of it and now roams freely in our yard)
