First official FERTILE Rouen eggs set last Saturday. I candled tonight and at LEAST 4 have superb development in them. Can we say happy dance . Thought might be early for duck/guinea cadle but I am NOT disapointed.

Congrats! Hopefully you'll have some little babies pop out of them eggs.

Yeah thats the plan in the long run. She moved her nest when I took the eggs for bator. But IU found it again she doesn't move nest far from where she starts laying.

Well that's good maybe she will hatch out some babies herself then you will have a ton of babies lol

Yeah I am kinda hoping for that with her AND the guineas. Trying a tatctic X(#) for me and then X for her. WE all happy and chicken math isn't ALL my fault. Can't make her stop laying. That would be just wrong.
