Hope is a two-week old Pekin duckling who Tammy refused to give up hope on. While she was growing within an egg, Hope spent the majority of her time under Pumpkin, a broody hen. The last couple of days, she was relocated to her mother’s nest. However, on day 28, Tammy noticed that her mother left the nest—along with the egg for almost the entire day. As she picked up the egg she realized that the duckling had already started piping. She managed to quickly set up an incubator and placed the egg inside so she could finish hatching.
