I hope they're alive for her

I candled Sugar's eggs (my pekin) and she had a bunch that were hers and three greens that I'm sure are Jujube's. So three Call eggs. Unfortunately, all of Sugar's eggs were infertile. Pumkpin, her boyfriend, is getting a little older now so it might be he just can't do the job any more, and I guess she's not mating with the Call drakes. Jujube's eggs however were all growing. Which is good, but I'm worried about if they'll be able to hatch on their own.

Hope they do well. She'll be huge to the calls.

Me too. I was gonna pull them and leave her just her own eggs, but can't do that now.

I have 2 that look like the 2 in the back and 2 similar to the one in front (from what i can see of her..

The one furthest away is a decent grey. Nice iridescent speculum. She is very small too. The other one I'm thinking may be dusky, or maybe just restricted, or just not as good color yet. Its a couple weeks younger, and I'm 99% sure male, and a bit bigger. So

Doing ok I think. Lots of sleeping but I showed it food and water, put a little nutri drench down the side of its bill like you taught me, and then it took a couple sips of water and nibbled at the food and went back to sleep.
