Well I have been getting about 4 eggs a day. Haven't heard any crowing or seen any action for breeding. Hopefully they are all hens.

If it is cold out when you collect eggs I normally allow them to sit room temp with pointed side down in a carton for 24hrs before incubation. Seems to help. What is your drake to hen ratio? What is your humidity when incubating duck eggs?

Okay so I got these as eggs last year and hatched them out. They are all 8-9m old now. Came from a breeder and they all should all be purebreed. Number 1 Number 2 I am leaning towards hen. Number 3 Number 4 Number 5

Thank you for the information! Still learning chicken colors and genetics. I know a bunch more about rabbits lol.

I would love to share some treats with all of our chickens. Lemon is one of my kids favorite though. She is a serama. They carry her around everyday.

It definitely has been a learning curve. I figure when it starts to get cold again I will probably have to wrap them to make sure she doesn't get anymore frostbite with them. I was actually thinking about trying to sew her some booties but just haven't figured out what would be best yet. I would...

She normally walks just fine on the stubs. She does flap her wings to help her go faster if she wants to run towards something. Like a treat lol. She does occasionally get pressure sores. When she does I use vet wrap and gauze to make like a sock that covers her stump and up her legs. She...
