My duck has been sitting faithfully on her nest for about 35 days.
Last night when I went out to check on her I noticed her eggs were pipped.
This morning, 1 hatched very weak almost dead duckling out in front of the nest. I touched it and it was very cold.(now in bator)
Is this normal for a first time broody?
Also I was just out there again and she looks remarkably more raggedy all of a sudden and she is shaking.
She has food and water close by. I hope she will be okay and the rest of her eggs hatch better than the first.
