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

This one looks chocolate to me, which would mean it was impossible for it to be a drake. Which would mean if it DOES end up a drake, then it can't be chocolate. But I have no clue what other color it could be.

Vent sex it Lol.

Can I do that at this point without hurting him? Or her.

Yep! It's harder than when they're babies because they're harder to handle, but the penis is way more obvious so in that sense it's easier. I've done mostly grown geese before.

fixed it so they can drink from both sides. . and apparently from on top too.
Of course Ralphie dux is the first one to get up there cause he thinks he is king of everything

I don't think there is bliss without dux.

You meant to say::

Without Dux the blisters will go away.....

What about Dun instead of sex-linked chocolate?

I don't think there is such a thing as dun in ducks, but I could definitely be wrong. I tried to look it up just now and was only turning up chickens, lol.
