Pip Pip Horray!

Ghetto Title, I know. I thought of it on the way home and had to use it,lol. Well, yesterday was day 28 for my duck. I had lots of pips, but no babies. So I went out today and had a look, NO babies! But they are making progress! Stinkin' slowpokes!

"Touch me and I'll attack!"

(She bit me atleast 20 times, and it didnt feel too good.)


"Let me out of here!!"

"Is anybody out therrrrrrrrree??"

for 12 baby ducks in the morning!!!

Thanks, Angie! I really hope you get to share a moment like this as well, its great. The best thing is when she takes them for their first swim, its awesome!

Gump, I most definitely will! I'll be out there for quite a while tomorrow so I'll be taking lots of pics!

Thanks, Jody! both Papa's are waiting! I am, but the father of these ducklings doesnt even know where their mother is! She vanished a month ago and he is a loner now. He will be so happy to see her again!

Jorday, that's awesome!! But be careful, that duck looks like she's ready to kill.....

How's it going? Do you have little ducklings?

I can't wait to see baby ducks! Are they out yet? I would've hatched em myself by now.

Quote:
Waterfowl eggs take 28 days to incubate. Ducks and geese often take 2 days to hatch after they pip. Helping a stuck baby out can be a good thing. Hatching them because you think they are ready is often disasterous and fatal.

Thanks for asking. I do have babies! I'll be making a post in a few once I get the pics uploaded, watch for it!
