The Duck Thread

Uh oh.. Marcy laid an egg today and now she is sitting on it!

Just one? Will you give her more?

 

[PBGGG]

I got it. We cant hatch any, we have enough now and we are going to move soon so we cant deal with an incubator while we are packing up.

Their first bath, fawn and white runner and khaki Campbell's. They weren't sure what to do but soon got the hang of it.

Do your ducklings still have their bands on their legs, as they grow those bands will cut into their skin.

Good spotting, Miss Lydia. It does look like the fawn and white has a light band on her right leg. Time to get that off.

Thanks Amiga and I had my glasses off.

This spring I am going to try my hand at hatching some muscovies and call ducks. And first timer advice?

Today we brought Marcy outside because it was about 40 degrees out. The boys immediately started picking on her, and she ended up sitting on a snowy hill and staring into the house. We brought her back inside, she had a bath, and while I was holding her, the poor girl was shivering. She is all better now, we are going to let her out for an hour or so tomorrow and bring her in at night.
