I don't have any of them so I thought what the heck...whats 6 more? I'm gonna put em under my hen tonight that hatched hers the other day so she can raise them.

They say the first and most important step is to realize you have a problem. Sounds like you're headed in the right direction. Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

You really should think these things through before you just throw extra mouths to feed under the new mother, who is probably still recovering from her recent chick-birth experience.

My head pops up when I hear them peeping it just happens and it tough to not go check them out. Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that! Jerry Herbst

Will probably abandon the duck eggs. Good thing have a spare incubator. Some individuals use statistics as a drunk man uses lamp-posts — for support rather than for illumination.
