Ahhh, good to know! I’m still learning the feet and bill colors, it’s so hard to keep track 🤣🤣 So many similar looking ducks that are distinguished from the feet/bill hahaha
I have some eggs in the incubator and wanted to make a ‘journal’ to document everything so I can look back on it later.
Feel free to follow along! And share your stories/photos/journey if you’re also incubating.
Right now there’s 5 eggs that are doing well. 4 Call Duck eggs I ordered and 1 of...
Out of curiosity, is there a chance she’s a black swedish?
I did see you mentioned the breeder thought she could be an Ancona mix, but she does look very similar to a Swedish!
...today, I found what looks to be a soft, ripped open egg shell on the ground. Not sure if it was laid or if a bird ate it and that was the reminants. Everyone is acting okay though.
*I did try searching on here first before asking, but I only found stuff about calcium supplements (liquid, pill)
I would say this is a Magpie! I have 4 Magpies, all of which look different. Their coloring did change, as well as their beaks. They progressively got more black spots on the beaks. One is also named Maggie 🤣 (the one that’s majority white)
Looking for your opinions and experiences on these breeds of ducks: Welsh Harlequin, Silver Appleyard, Saxony, Silver/Splash Swedish
I’m going to get some more female ducklings. It started at 2 but I managed to convince duck dad to be fine with 3. Well I tried to sneakily make it 5 and he drew...
Yayyyy!!! I’m happy you decided!
Let us know how the egg hatching goes!!
& I have seen a decent amount of places use photos from Metzer/other hatcheries and still have great reviews! So you should be okay I would hope
