    Young pilgrim gander eyes Not blue?

    Earl is seven weeks old. He’s a pilgrim gander, but his eyes are not blue. Do they turn blue eventually ? Like gradually? I don’t remember if Charlie (my original gander who is Earl’s dad) had the blue eyes when he was that young but I kind of think he did.

    200$ budget to build for 6 ducks

    Can anyone point me to any of the coop build articles that might work for me? Like to be able to walk in and out (I’m 5’7) but I understand that will drive up the price so I’m thinking maybe a short building with a hinged roof that I can open from the top to reach in for cleaning

    Is it more important to keep the incubator closed than to put the other eggs back into proper position?

    Gander stepping on goslings

    I have a pair of pilgrims with three day old goslings and I noticed the gander keeps accidentally stepping on his babies to the point where he almost killed one stepping on its neck so I separated him from his family during the day, but put him in the coop with them at night. I’m still concerned...
