    Falling Down Heights, my daily life

    Two eggs out of nest this morning. Brought them inside, candled, and one was cracked but with a decended air cell. It was also cold. Now in the incubator. Also rescued another duckling that was out of the nest. Eggs due for lockdown tomorrow already started hatching. I'm wondering if they...

    I further grabbed a few eggs from the nest. I tried to mark the eggs, but when she started to sit tight it was more difficult and I eventually gave up. She must have over 20 eggs under her! I took five, candled them, and put the one developed one in the incubator. I'll snatch another five...

    Found one of the babies alone in the very wet yard, so managed to grab it (fast little bugger!) and the one still in the nest and brought them inside. This female is a great brooder, but a terrible mother so I knew I may have to do this.

    Had to cull a scovie duckling. :( Worst part is that it was probably my fault for assisting too early. Feel like crap about it. There are eggs hatching under a broodie. Two so far. I'm afraid that the eggs may be very scattered in incubation though so may have to switch them to the...

    Sometime it's so hard to tell the difference between Muscovy eggs and quacker eggs. I'd put eggs in the incubator thinking they were quackers. They were supposed to hatch by yesterday. Air cells were still high so I didn't even put them in lockdown yet. Pretty sure they're 'scovies...

    Yes, I saw your reply to me in the Canadian thread. I've never ordered anything from them. I was warned off by someone else.

    Nope, never going to convince me of tgat. Plus, I can't play Guild Wars 2 on my phone.

    Oh, and I hate doing everthing on my phone.

    I know, not very active on here lately. Going through a lot of personal bs. Goslings are doing well, growing like three times the rate of ducklings. They both love being outside and hate me leaving them outside. As soon as I'm out of sight they start crying for me. Moved four ducklings...

    She 'endured' the snuggles, lol! But she enjoys scritches on her head and neck.

    Fawn or buff, yeah. I think dad was the khaki campbell mix, who carried chocolate and was also blue, so that would make sense.

    Snuggling a Miracle Duckling. Trouper is so pretty. She stands *almost* like a runner, no idea where she got that from. Almost is good, because I don't particularly like runners, lol!

    My internet connection has been crap. I think it's my modem. In other news, tentative sale on three ducks and four scovies.

    Had another argument with my daughter. I don't want to live here anymore... But I have nowhere to go, especially with how expensive everything is and how little I get every month. Just put up some ads to sell most of the ducks.

    And now, two more in lockdown. I moved all the incubating eggs to the MeeF, and am using the Maticoopx just for hatching.

    Colt the Gosling is quite the character. The dog is afraid of him! Colt actually tries to bite poor Taiyo's nose! Right now, Colt is bathing in the dog's water bowl.

    Thanks Fluffy, but I was an idiot. She was in the coop this morning.

    Falling Down Heights, my daily life

    Noticed yesterday my oldest duck Coco was not there. And in retrospect, I realized I hadn't seen her in a few days. I feel kinda terrible about this. She was an escape artist, always finding *some way* of getting out. I suspect this happened and she went to the water/swamp in the woods and...

    Shadowing egg externally pipped yesterday. Couple more of the orphan eggs are getting close! I have to admit, I looking forward to the end of the hatchings.
