Beautiful babies JZ

Thanks! I hope they all turn out to be a beautiful healthy flock! Thinking up names now

you can try giving them some peas[green] mashed up in some warm water and also some shredded lettuce along with the starter/grower feed.
Thay are so cute..

Update #4: As I suspected little ducky is still working on the same pip. Good grief. I'm starting to wonder if my ducks lay concrete shells. Maybe that's why these ducks can't get out.

ok my eggs(chicks) where due to hatch last sat

they looked a little behind
so I left them in

it is now THURSDAY still nothing
is it safe to say no chicks this time

oh I am so upset about this
had eggs from 2 differnt people and some of mine
that had just started to lay

they all looked good at lock down

 

[critterrun]

and some where SIZZLES and silkies

others where Duccles

I really wanted Sizzles and some more silkies

and was hoping for a few girls for my D UCCLE roo

Critterrun: Candle for movement. I hate that for you. I've been there too. I just don't understand it. I can send you silkie/sizzle eggs in the spring. If you were closer I'd just give you these 6 chicks!
