    Falling Down Heights, my daily life

    Welp, one egg in lockdown! :lau These were eggs that got kicked out of the nest and I decided to put in. There are six of them, no idea if scovy or quacker. Been candling every evening since I had no idea how long the duck had been sitting before they were kicked out. This one is either...

    Pecked in the eye!

    I'm *almost* part of the club. Little cockerel, sweet as can be, loved to be held. Decided one day my eye looked tasty. Managed to blink in time to avoid the peck! Never held him close to my face after that, nor any other chicken.

    Muscovy Duck heterochromia (split blue/ brown eyes)

    Oh, and sorry I can't help with the eyes. I think it's due to the combination of his chocolate and pied genes, but I could be completely off.

    Muscovy Duck heterochromia (split blue/ brown eyes)

    The thing with whites is they are not actually white, it's the result of a double pied gene. Pied is dominant so you just need one gene for it to show. From the looks of that absolutely amazing drake, he is a chocolate pied. So, all babies will be either pied or white, and who knows what is...

    How many duck eggs did you EAT today?

    I'm here! I wouldn't trust most mushrooms but morels are so distinctive and I knew what to look for. They do need to be thoroughly cooked though, which I did.

    The Quack Shack

    Believe me, by the end of my indoor hatching season (which is in about 3 weeks!) I want nothing to do with all these birds in the trailer! :lau I've also got 13 month-old silkie mix chicks that I haven't sold yet, plus about 20 other chicks (Chantecler, Brahma, and OEGB) that I picked up from a...

    The Quack Shack

    Had five more babies hatch yesterday. Running out of places to put them all, lol! Right now I have a total of 14, three of which are Muscovy (eggs got mixed up in the nest boxes) and one that I purchased last week (a chocolate magpie!). Also have about 2 dozen more eggs in the incubators, all...
