I put the duck eggs under her a while back and she hatched them yesterday. We had to take her and the ducklings out of the chicken coop because the geese where going to kill the ducklings. So she will be inside for a little while.

Helo, I like ducks better thn chickens. I think they have more personality. But there's always a sweetheart hen that loves attention. Good deal man!

Our ducks are not as friendly as our chickens. They run away from us, even though we hand raised most of them. The chickens come up and eat out your hands.
