That's an awesome picture group! Love it.

Havn't figured out all my gendors yet, but I think I have boys and girls in all groups. I guess I should go check and see who laid while I was at work.....

So, who has the next hatch due...?

 

[jdywntr]

Well, I have a chicken thats hatching eggs now. LOL But after 3 muscovy hatches since December, I don't even have a duck laying.

 

[Kevin565]

I have two ducks sitting on rocks

 

[jdywntr]

I'm not sure which of us has it worse.

 

[Kevin565]

. Sometimes I wonder if my bantam ducks are missing a few marbles

. They both sat on rocks last year too. I wish people around here had duck eggs for sale then I would just slip a few under them.

I've finally seen a Egyptian Goose in person! There was a feral one at the park today. They are stunning

. If they weren't so aggressive I'd love to keep a pair around.

Kevin, that's funny. Do they just roll rocks into their nests???

 

[Kevin565]

They actually do

. I think they find them in their run. We have such rocky soil down here.
