Well, I got the entire skeleton of my new duck house done today in about an hour and a half. Not a bad day's work! But it got too dark for pictures so I'll have to snap some tomorrow.

Your ducks are so pretty! Becky has a nice crest. Is she a Runner?
That's pretty good for an hour and a half. How big is it? Don't forget to post pics tomorrow!Well, I got the entire skeleton of my new duck house done today in about an hour and a half. Not a bad day's work! But it got too dark for pictures so I'll have to snap some tomorrow.

That's a good size coop.Will do! It's 8' by 4', 38.5" tall on the tall side sloping to 33" on the short side. I know that sounds really random but it's like that so it works perfectly with 1 by 6 boards, which will make up the walls.
Actually, it pipped on the wrong end of the shell then couldn't get out so I had to help it out. I removed the top half of the shell and it came out, blood vessels had dried up and the yolk was in so it was ready. The temperature should be good because it's under its mother, not in a incubator. We will give it a warm bath tomorrow.Oooh, tough one.. I am not a hatcher, let me think. I wonder if it just had a rough go, getting out of the shell. I think I'd just make sure the temperature is good, the surface is grippy so there's no risk of leg injury, and then tomorrow put a couple of inches of 90F water in a cake pan or paint pan and let little play in that to help circulation. I don't know if something like an arnica-comfrey salve is okay for ducklings. Probably, but I don't know for sure ...
