Preparing to set call and pekin duck eggs! Hatch day should be March 4, 2021 if all goes well!

Unfortunately the little blue bib duckling didn’t make it. It had some health issues. It had a bad eye and a bad leg.

Oh no, that’s so sad. I’m so sorry. But better now than later.

Thank you for the condolences. I do suppose you are right.

Poor little thing never breathed normal from the start.

How’s your momma duck doing?

How’s your momma duck doing?

She’s doing great thanks for asking. Her ducklings have started to shadow but no internal pips yet.

Awesome. Same here, I actually saw one internal pip last night while she was off the nest.

Yay! @WVduckchick look at this duckling overload. Up to 9 right now. I moved momma and babies into my shed. Everyone is doing well. I will be keeping the little (snowy?) one and a blue bib.
