    Maybe I'll pump them full of food coloring first like they used to do with chicken eggs. Then when they hatch they'll be all different colors just to add confusion for them.

    Sounds like a lot of trouble. Do they at least taste like chicken eggs?

    So what you're saying is that I should put them under a broody hen then?

    Found a hidden nest today. Doubt they'll hatch since they all seem to be soft shelled but I'll throw them in the incubator and see.

    I had mallards awhile back. Bought like 8 ducklings from a guy. All turned out to be females then I had a hell of a time finding any true mallards anywhere. Just wanted one male. Saw an ad on CL for one male "wild type" mallard. I went and grabbed him up. Brought him home, showed him the girls...

    Isn't there something different about the eye stripes between mallards and rouens? Thought I heard that once

    I set some eggs in the big incubator tonight. Small batch but it's something. Should be underway for weekly hatching again if the hens cooperate. Been 90s to upper 90s most days for the last week or two so production is down and I'm sure viability will be too.

    Hot tub? But why? It was 102° here today. Can you fill them with ice water?

    Sweet. I should have a few eggs going into lockdown today. Nothing else even set so looks like at least a 3 week chick hiatus here.
