    The Quack Shack

    So sad to hear that you lost so many of your ducks. How do tey even get salpingitis or aspergillosis? I didn't know ducks could get something like that. I have been very lucky that my 25 have stayed healthy. It would be terrible do lose that many so close together. Do you have anymore or...

    Egg Candling! Tips, Tricks, and Best Practices.

    I Have done duck eggs before from my own ducks. I usually check each one individually but at the most I have only done six. I put my shelf liner down when I am ready for lockdown for the reason that you stated, I was afraid of my turning feature not being able to operate correctly. I hope...

    Male duck prolapse

    When my little Call duck had a prolapse it was hanging out and the size of a round quarter. It was a ball and greenish in color and very hard. There would not have been any way to get it back in. When I researched it I saw where the infection from the prolapse could enter into the rest of the...

    Spring is coming

    Our temps are up and down. It will get down to 19 Tuesday morning and has been in the 70's at times. That's just Ohio for you. I knew when I was born in a state that was a 4 letter word I was in for it. lol

    Is the ENTIRE job market really that bad, or only the tech industry?

    I feel AI has too much power and someone needs to have more control over it. When it goes as far as to tell me the bullet points of my emails it has gone too far as far as I am concerned. I feel pretty safe in my own personal job, I drive a school bus and we are always crying for bus drivers...

    The Small Joys of Life

    Making a big salad for my duckies just so that I can pet their bellies as they are eating from my hand. I love the feel of their soft feathers.

    I don't like AI at all. The kids on my bus showed me a wild looking silky chicken with feathers sticking all over its head about 6 inches long. It looked absolutely crazy and they thought it was real! I told them no silky would look that crazy and it had to be AI. I don't trust anything I...

    The Conundrum of Wanting to Hatch "poem"

    I am with you on this one. I have ducks and wonder who is the daddy as I have 4 males and 21 females. My eggs are also mostly viable and it just kills me not to get out my incubator. Hatching is so much fun but I too am out of room. I would never eat any of my ducks and some are older and I...

    Question of the Day - Friday, February 27th, 2026

    I set three alarms. The one above my head on the headboard goes off last so when the one in the bathroom off of our room goes off I hurry and shut that one off. Then I shut off my phone and the alarm next to it that goes off after my phone has gone off. Sounds crazy right??? When you have 55...

    How much do you cry?

    I am so sorry for your loss. When I lost my Son I didn't laugh for quite a while but then realized that laughter really is the best medicine. I say silly things to make people laugh. I tell the kids on my bus that I used to be a stand up commedian but now I am a sit down one since I am...

    I got 4 eggs today too. I have been getting one almost all winter from a Rouen that we rescued last Christmas. I think she was just so happy that we saved her that she is giving me these eggs as a thank you.

    Embrace the Bare Face

    My Mom would always tell us kids that we could not leave the house until she was done painting the barn. That is what she called putting on her makeup, lol.
