Anything else I should let him know about ? He only wants two but I am going to suggest incubating 4. Those that know me...

    First Egg

    I want to start a first egg thread. First ever, like us. First of the year, and, first for an individual duck. Btw, does anyone know if this one came from our KC or one of the Rouens . It is too small for the Pekin.

She has a bite on her head and could not walk or hold her head up at first but is getting better by the day. I have a few questions. She...
