Grats Two-Crows! They look amazing!!!

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

AWWWWW! Thank you!!! :hugs

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.

Amazing how fast they grow, huh? The new one that hatched yesterday is half the size (or more!) of the ones that hatched a week ago!

Can't have a basement either, unless I want to blow it out of the solid rock. And, that would be silly for a trailer. So all my babies are inside with me, and the place is filled to capacity (and beyond) right now. But it's still getting cold at night. Had to put my heater on a few times still.

Last of this year's should hatch mid-June. After that, only eggs that broodies left behind will be placed in the incubators to hatch. Good season, barring that 60 hours power outage. I think I got close to 90% hatch rate (wasn't keeping tabs). Now I *really* need to make some outdoor brooders!!!

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

Just had a random 'abandoned' egg hatch. Got home from the feed store and was greeted by a wet fuzzy still partially in his shell. Took some eggs that had been kinda sat then ignored and put them in the incubator. This is going to be a very staggered hatch.

Welcome!

Oh, and the egg hatched!

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.

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...
