6 Australian Spotted duck eggs went into lockdown yesterday. These are the first of this breed, so I'm quite excited.

Well, I didn't think my Bourbon Red turkeys were laying yet. When I went to check on the chickens in the snow, I heard a turkey crying out from the edge of the woods. Upon closer inspection, she was underneath the fallen pine tree, and possibly stuck, now that it was snow covered. After I helped her out, I discovered this. It looks like there might be a chicken egg in here too, lol.

That's a pretty picture! You should enter it in the natural egg photo contest that's going on right now with the hatch a long.
Two Ameraucana questions.
1) About what age are they accurately sex-able?
2) If I get straight run from Dennis and raise them up and they all turn out to be boys, is there anyone here that would take them off my hands (obviously for free)? I think with an Amerucana 'roo crossed with a dark brown layer you get olive eggers?
I do believe I can help with number 2 lol
