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

hormonal ducks are something else.

And that water is wayyyyyy too clean.

Only because I just cleaned it!
Trust me it was filthy 5 minutes later.

Ya I know. It's very hard on me taking care of filthy ducks. I need those hugs!

Did I really break the thread? Where has everyone been? @Ruralhideaway @iluvsedward
What y'all been up to?

Here’s the one (there are actually 2, almost identical twins) I was wondering about pastel pied. The color does not come out in pics, the first pic looks much darker than she is (the ling in the middle), but I keep trying.

So cute! From the pictures I would say blue Bibb on the one. But I know it's hard to get the color true in pictures. My blue Bibb has an eye stripe. They aren't supposed to, I guess it's a defect but I think it's adorable.

@GldnValleyHens
Did you ever hatch/find some more call ducks?

You didn't break it! All is well here. Although my goose with angel wing isn't fixing despite days of wrapping.

Here's a duck awkwardly changing into boy colors.

It’s not a blue, for sure. The one that the hawk got was blue, and they were clearly very different.
Best pic I can find, blue on the lower left, beside one of these twins. I also have twin “silvers”. Much lighter than the two that I can’t figure out. Malibu on the far left, one of the silvers up on the platform. The lower chest area is turning the color that Bonkers did, prior to his big color change.
