Only one more week!

My momma muscovy #1 has been patiently sitting on her 16+1 eggs for four weeks, through rain and sunshine . Temps ranging from 40F to 85F. She is due to hatch on the 9th.

She is sitting very close (about 3ft) to her sister who has to the 23rd of this month. Once the ducklings are hatched should i take mom and the babies and transfer them to the doghouse and make a temporary fence around it? I will only keep the ducklings for a few days and sell them at the auction.

her sis is sitting on a dozen too. My DD wants to buy a bike for her b-day so she really hopes for a good price at the auction.

The dog house and temp fence should work out well. Otherwise, you'll have little ducklings running all over your yard.

Hope you have a good hatch and a great sale at auction.
