Shaws call duck incubation thread (hatch a wonderful(worthless to Ralphie) dux thread)

[Pyxis]

Sexing done. Six females, five males. Three female snowies, two male snowies, one female blue bibbed, one female gray, one male gray, one male blue dusky, one male black pied, and one very light colored mystery female. Think I want to for sure keep the black pied since I really want pied in my flock, and both the snowy males since as soon as I sell one the other's going to die, that's just how that works.

So that leaves me with selling the gray male, which is good because I have a lady that wanted a gray male, and I guess the blue dusky, though I would have liked to have kept him. Or I guess I could sell her the pair of grays but I would like to keep all the females. Decisions.

Why do you dislike Pyxis ?

Here's little mystery color duckling. It has a bit of blueish gray tinge to it that's hard to capture in pictures. Anyone have color guesses?

Nice selection, and not too awful on the gender ratio. I still want snowys.

Pastel, I'm pretty sure. If not, then silver.

I love this little Grey girl, Squirt. I guessed male when I kept her, with Bianca, who I guessed female, is apparently male. Pyxis, you're going to have to help me vent sex, because my guessing sucks.
The pair that is 2 weeks younger are already bigger than Squirt is.
