Okay so pair #1: Both produce normals or black white flighted babies. That's ALL they've ever produced for me... well to be fair they've only thrown me 6 babies but still 😂. It seems their one baby is turning white?? Like, not sure how to explain it (you'll see in the photos)
(Pair 1)
Baby's...
Baby unfortunately passed away. One of my mated pairs decided they didn't like their nest box anymore and attacked the pair and the baby for their nest. I've separated the guilty pair into rhere own seperate aviary. But I will attach a photo of what she looked liked hours before she died.
This is the pairs first squab, now I'm normally good at guessing what the squab will end up looking like but this little one has me so confused. Babies a dilute downed. So, mom has a whole bunch of colors, so babies took more for mom.
Mom is recessive red, while dad pretty much just has feral...
Remember not to leave it out to long, a big reason why the membrane dries. My duck is currently hatching out the wrong way and I'm letting it do it's thing.
Hello! Have not been on in a while, so this is sort of random, lol.
Have a hatching duck, I'm pretty sure it's hatching the wrong way. Sadly, I cannot get pictures at this time but I can later if it's needed. It's been pipping for about 19ish hours with no progress, this is only my second time...
Now that you mention it, I used layer yesterday as feed to replace their chick feed which I used all of, I also used it today, probably not the smartest move but We'll be getting more feed for them tomorrow, the chick is getting better suddenly? She's moving around fine now, just fluffed up...
I have a chick that seems sickly. She's all fluffed up and mostly sleepy. She's about 5 weeks old. They're already in a coop but they'res so many chicks I figured they would keep each other warm. Which has been going great. All survived 35 F a few days ago. I'm keeping her separate with another...
28 died last hatch. I kept humidity at 50-55 for the first 18 days and then 60-65 the last days. I have no idea what incubator. I lost the manual. But it reads off a "screen" for the humidity and temp. It rotates the eggs every 2 hours. I had a 50% hatch last time. I havee 9 chicks hatching...
