I'm so excited for you stony... I love that color runner. I think of all the colors the fawn and white is my favorite. If i hadn't have decided to let my 2 Muscovies brood this year, they aren't getting any younger [almost 4] I would get eggs from you in a heart beat. Maybe next yearanyway depending on the size of her egg [I'm thinking Muscovy] she could probably sit 6-7 my ducks are probably 5 lbs and they can sit at least 10 without any problems. Now my 2 drakes could probably sit 30-40 they are so huge compared to the girls. Thank goodness they don't go broody. my hands look like I've been in a fist fight now. lol Keep us updated on miss Penelope
thanks! I'm pretty eggcited myself! I don't know how large a Muscovie egg is, but her eggs are smaller than my Pekin eggs, and larger than most of my RIR eggs. A few of my RIR's lay extra jumbo! I was hoping, if she contiunues to sit for an entire day, I could slip her what I have. Or at least let her add if she isn't quite ready, then slip her a few extras. I'd love to give her 6 or 7 total. Just in case some don't make it. Of her eggs in the bator, all are developing nicely!
I know what you mean about the drakes. My Pekin drakes are SO HUGE! One of the girls is as well. She must go 10 or 11 lbs. So big!
