Setting duck eggs on Saturday, 8/18 - Anyone wanna join? (Set by next Saturday for chicken eggs)

He's dead for sure. I took the egg out and broke further around it and the little guy had already passed away...

Which means I'll be raising one duckling by itself for at least two weeks, ugh. Better get her some diapers so she can be out with me all the time. Tomorrow I'll be vent sexing her to see what gender she is. Hoping for a girl!

Sorry to hear about your dead duckling. Do they really make diapers in duck sizes?

Is it too late for me to join? I set some (almost 4 dozen) yesterday afternoon

Well, I'm gonna be around for two more weeks hatching out a few more chicks and ducks so you're welcome to stick around with me.

Red, they do make duckling diapers. However, the duckling passed away last night in the incubator Not sure what happened. I already ordered the diapers, though, and I had planned to hand raise one duckling anyway to make her very human friendly, so they won't go to waste. I was so sad when I found her this morning - I already loved the little thing, and she had imprinted on me...

The new chicks!

Now the hard part to find out what kind they are!!

 

[Pyxis]

Do you remember what the birds looked like in the pictures she showed you? They're super cute

 

[bigred7469]

She had all kinds! The main thing I remember is the RIR roo. But with all the birds I saw she has to have more than one roo to keep all those hens satified. Every one of those eggs were fertile.

After all...They ARE chicken eggs Maybe, just maybe, I could join in?
