While you're waiting, make sure everything is ready for them when they come out. Keep yourself busy, but close by. A watched egg never hatches.

Hey Jerry!

I just found a entire flock of call ducks for sale

I don't need more ducks but bantams don't count as a full duck right?

Jerry! Great to see you!

At least I'm relieved it is turning out that boys are actually girls, instead of the other way around! Napolean is a stunning goose! Are your new ones both boys??

So much for accurate vent sexing of ganders.... my "gander" Hitch (grey dewlap) just laid an egg this morning.

3 EMU eggs in LD !

I hear one baby pecking at the shell! The other 2 are "quiet" So I for sure have 1 baby hatching out of the 3 eggs !!!

Yay for emu's!!!

Makes me HAPPY!
Uh oh
Go babies go!
Yay for the eggs and congrats on losing weight I am working on that now!

Of course they don't count. A flock equals like one duck, really. At least that's how I look at them.

I thik I've decided Fridays are egg setting day.... buy the time the other 3 geese start laying and fertility is up I better have a plan

I'm so jealous of everybody getting eggs. Two weeks ago even my chickens decided they had had it and stopped laying for me. Sigh. Also, one other gosling question - at about what age will they be as big as standard size chickens (like leghorn, red sex link, etc size)? That's when I plan on taking them out of baby diapers and putting them in the better made, easier to use 'adult' diapers. I'm just wondering when I should order. They're very similar to sebbies, so if anyone who raises them has any ideas, that would be awesome.

One month, give or take a week or two. The 1 month and 1.5 month old were chicken sized, and bigger.
