Good one Peep.

I ended up with 2 ducklings out of the eggs I put in the incubator after the fox got my last male and left me with my last female. They hatched May 10th and they're already the same size as my adult female. Pekins grow fast! And I agree 100% that they're absolutely delicious yet hard to kill. They have such personality.

What sexes are they? I sure hope you got one of each.

back in oz when we were sheep farmers, we used to cook on an Aga stove that ran on coke

christmas was 100 degrees but mum would always turn out a roasted turkey and roasted lamb

Ohh, that lamb sounds good. Really good.

I am still not certain but I think everyone from that last hatch is a girl... chickens, turkeys, ducks. The only boy I think I got is from a female sexed leghorn from the feed store.

This is my life.

Quote: We have two "pullet surprise"s out of 6 EE's we got a couple of weeks before Easter. Meaning that they were supposedly sexed as pullets, but "surprise, surprise, surprise!" they are cockerels. I'd actually kinda been hoping to get 1, looks like we got a bonus boy.

I hope so.
