The ducklings are quickly growing. We had them in a box in the laundry room, but they've graduated to a bigger box in the garage. Only three didn't hatch, so we ended up with seven out of 12 (one got cracked partway through incubation and we got rid of it). My guess is those three must've been the ones not in the turner.
The broody hen up in the haymow is still broody. There's a second one up there often, so maybe we'll have two mamas. How far into the 21 day incubation are we? Not sure, but the weather forecast looks pretty nice coming up, so maybe the chicks will make it.
I caught these two sharing a nesting box. 😂
Someone else is getting bigger too. Must be going through a growth spurt...
After I took this picture, he topped his meal with about 2/3rds of a cheese stick. 😱 Where does he put it all???
