The eggs came from 3 greys and 2 silvers... the drake is *I think* tecnically a blue fawn pied... him over the silvers *should* produce 50/50 blues and silvers... but don't know what else he is carrying, thus my test batch which should be hatching this weekend, I believe...
Sorry for the brown feather, that's a new one... have gotten some fawn wash on some blues, but not that... mixed colors is unpredictable, that's why I'm working towards breeding to true colors...
Yep, they are much more interested in snuggling, lol... as she gets older she'll start finding some independence as she should...
Drakes can go either way about fatherhood... some are excellent partners, some have to be kept separated from mom and babies, and some are just indifferent... it's a crap shoot...
Should be exciting to see what you hatch! I'm on day 12, so still a bit to go.
What are you sorry about?!? I absolutely love her little brown feather! It's like a beauty mark. We all think it's adorable!
I kinda figured that about the dads. Can't really say just because they are duck they will be one way or the other. Each has their own personality. I have a roo that likes to sit in the nest boxes with the girls and is always looking for treats for the chicks and then I have one that chases all the chicks away from the treats (he's young so I'm hoping he shapes up or he'll ship out). :/
