First ducklings of the year!

Well technically the second, I hatched one of Miry's boy's ducks a couple weeks ago, but this is the first of my ducks.
I have 2 black ducks (out of my daughter's black duck which we have no idea how she came about, thinking pekin rouen???), then 2 yellow ducks (thinking buff or buff crosses, possible welsh in there?) and 1 Aussie spot with 2 more that loook like Ausies in the hatcher, havent taken them out yet so not sure.
I am very happy with this hatch, far better than the last one.

Yeah! Congrats! I'm expecting my very first ever duckling hatch the first week of May I'm so excited! I've been hovering over those eggs the last couple weeks and so far they are doing well. Hopefully my wishing and hoping will get them to hatch well We need duckling pics Hidden!

Daisy, my Saxony duckling is my only one to hatch so far. I can't seem to hatch duck eggs. I keep losing them between the second and third week! Any ideas? On a good note, Daisy is a spoiled house duckling. Loves to have a bath in my deep soaker tub, get dried off and then hang out in the kitchen munching grapes. I love her!!

I had 11 out of 12 eggs hatch while being incubated by a broody crested duck. Never tried it in an incubator. Don't own an incubator... It was very exciting, though. I sold 5 - kept 6. Unfortunately, I lost all but one, plus my drake and my adult runner to coyotes this winter. It was devastating

Gonna try again with Saxonys (I hope ), and Harlequins. Fortunately I still have the broody duck and her daughter from last year, so hopefully I can get away without incubators...
