so i fully expected to wake up to a dead duckling .
but this little guy is determined.
i dont know that he'll make it but he sure is trying.
i put him in a cup to try to get him in a normal position but so far he keeps flinging himself out which means he is strong enough to do so .
2 other babies are in cuos.
a little snowy whi isnt quite getting the jist on her legs.
and a blue bibbed whos one leg wont cooperate


on the bright side i have 3 happy healthy ZOOMY babies.
a snowy. a grey,
and i think the other is a blue bibbed (im drawing a total blank on it)
so soon they will be leaving the bator.
the little snowy is soo funny i opened the bator to pull out the icu baby to give vitamins (and clip the hanging yolk sack off bcuz it smelled horrible)
and she comes zooming up and stops directly infront of me as if to ask what im doing
So glad you had no more losses last night!

Just watching ebay & I swear some people are on crack! Why would it cost $23 to ship 3 chicken eggs???
Hmmmm...you must be looking at the auction I'm watching! I sent a message asking if that was express shipping, and was told no, it's priority. WTH?

Here is a pic of my new trio of buffs. Wish they were already on their way... but with memorial day holiday, Carole felt it best to wait until Tuesday to ship.
AWESOME!!!! That's about the age of the girl I just got.
Ooh those three have good size on them! They look about the size of the older Sebbies we sent out, was surprised how much the boogers weighed. Deffinetly not chick box sized for shipping.
She put mine in a chick box with 6 Marans chicks....and my girl was about that big! I opened the box, and when she stood up, I about fell over! It's amazing she didn't squash a chick!
 
Utah....Barley is looking wonderful! I'll try to get photos of mine today. I prefer late evening because my flash captures color better that way. We do seem to be overcast today, so that may work, too.
 
Fergie my middle Seb doesn't feel good. She's not grazing like the others are. She's keeping to herself and laying down a lot. Her eyes look sad. (don't laugh). I've thought this for about 3 days now.

Thought's on that please Celtic? Or whoever.

Here's the gray I'm seeing. Hope it comes through in the pic..





 
Ok...the Call ducklings continue to amaze me with their tenacious desire to survive. I went to pull out the container holding what I thought would be a dead duckling, and found it was fully alive, sitting with it's head up and eyes open, looking at me. I can't believe it!!! This baby was so listless last night, I find it hard to believe this is the same baby. I put it in with the other two, without being in a container, and it's motoring around with them and even flipped itself back over when it got excited and flipped. I'm just sitting here in disbelief

Deffinetly gray tone, they could stay or molt off. White Sebbies all genetically carry color, the white masks it. On some it leaks back out.

Sad eyes? Hhmm... Fever? Not eatting and laying down would have me going over her top to bottom and making sure there isn't something to be found. Fix foods you know she normally eats and see how she reacts.

Dutch... Poor gosling, be glad the PO shipped it to you, they normally will refuse a box w/o filters and a large bird inside.

Iain. Lovely pictures.
