Oh, my, gosh! Look at the egg I just found in my coop! It is next to my largest duck egg that I have! Should I throw it in my bator and see what happens?

I wouldn't - it's most likely a double or triple yolk, which has a great chance of developing and a very low chance of surviving ,so it'll most likely have a disappointing result. They do however make great omelets!

I'm so excited for my eggs to hatch! Hoping for a good turnout of paint silkies and paint showgirls from my flock. It's been a loooong time since I've been hatching.

Here are pictures of my group the eggs were collected from - all are either paints or offspring of paints:




(Just to ease your mind, the lattice is only a divider INSIDE the pens - they're quite safe in a well built coop with hardware cloth.)
