GQ- When you say "silkie" do you mean chicken?

Silkie Ducks. We only have one pair at the farm and I was told to expect low fertility, but all are growing!

Let's think positive hatching vibes. I have goosies internally pipping right now.

Yes...wrapped tight, but it has continued to seep blood all day. The vet said it probably would, but not to remove his bandage for a couple of days. He's very lame, and he's been laying down a lot today, taking weight off of it.

Is it front or back?

awww, you always come on, when i need to get off!!

I gotta sleep, night!

Good night!

OMG! SM....those BEI babies are to die for! I just love those black legs and bills!!! I must resist another breed!!!...

 

[Goin Quackrrs]

ok, probably not her then. I'll check and see if mine was from Colorado, but mine wrapped them and put them in a special egg carton. Mine are also SQ from Holderreads. I feel an egg swap coming on in about 6 months.

Little plastic egg cartons that hold six eggs? That's her.

I would dig an egg swap!

OMG! Will they sell me some?? I've looked everywhere! The only place I found them was a situation I didn't really trust.

 

[Goin Quackrrs]

My bad....I didn't know what breed they were and I was having a hard time picturing you sexing dead babies

(that's you smacking me, by the way lol)

This is just too bizarre to not

.

Mine are not hers. If I get more eggs from unrelated stock, then I would have saxony eggs to swap... Would be fun! I will hopefully have nice anconas, cayugas, and silver apples to swap though.
