So.....I have an African goose, and a Mallard drake, thats all the waterfowl I have. They have been mating for 2 years now....I have eaten 4 goose eggs this week and all were fertile.....So now she is setting on 3 of her own eggs along with some others....So in almost a month, If all goes well, I should have some Deese or Gucks haha

Why did you quote that and just not say anything .

Did it hatch?

 

[enola]

I would guess not.

Ok, I have already said this, but for those of you who havent read it, I originally set 3 eggs, 2 were infertile, 1 was fertile. The fertile one developed for a little over a week and then died. I havent tried since, only because my goose hasnt laid since. When she resumes her production, I will try again.

 

[Buck Oakes]

Oh, sorry that had to happen to you

 

[bemba]

Yeah I have ,wierd how Guineas can breed with peafowl and chickens

But peafowl can't breed with chickens

Ahh but they can There is a thread on "Twisted sister" on here.

Personally I've done a lot of research on hybrids and although there are a few claims of true Geese (not Shellducks) x domestic mallard derived ducks no solid evidence has been produced. If it were me I would have taken pictures of the fertile egg both candled and once opened, I think if you do get a hybid and provide pictures you'd be the first person. I've bred some Mallard x Muscovy ducks they always turn out stunners!


This is one of my Hybrids with a pure Muscovy.
