Just regular 1100 gallon stock tank in the ground, no turtles here or aquatic predators. My pigs are sure happy each time I find one, at least nothing goes to waste here.
Found two dead ducks in my duck pond past week, one drake and one hen so far. It isn't predators, since it's right next to my LGD and he isn't or doesn't have interest in any of the birds.
Time to put cameras up...
My first batch to ever hatch of 41 ducklings on the 7th of March
Then there is my 2 goslings that hatched on the 19th of March
Now I got 80 more ducklings due for the 1st of April
Thanks, I have been trying since the first egg she laid to incubate them. Out of 5 those two made it, next batch of 5 I see only two again. So I'm changing a few things from only 3 at a time to cut down time before going in incubator, to how long they stay out and maybe help with external...
10 eggs this morning... no wait looking around about 1400 hrs found two more outside the coop. Guess letting them out at 0700 hrs is too early, I think they are getting ready to lay later as spring rolls in.
Got 30 in one incubator and they all are moving around, 3 days till lock down.
