It Crows, It Cheeps, it's... a duckling?

Our first batch of ducklings are hatching!

They are so ugly they are adorable.

We were questioning whether or not a chicken would be able to hatch them, and if they did, would they look too different so the mama would peck them.

So far so good. Oliver has hatched 1, with another one trying to come through the shell. We will see how well they do. I am pretty excited about them.

Since we have so many broody hens, it will be nice to vary it out a bit as to what we hatch.
