Woke up this morning and went downstairs expecting to see our little Call Duckling dead in the incubator, but when I got to the incubator, it was running around like
a loony and seems fine :). The duckling is now out in the brooder with a
Pekin chick to keep him company because I don't think we're going to
get anymore hatch from this set.Still have some under a broody though
that are due to hatch a week on Monday, lets hope she has better luck
than me!
Took down another 2 runs and a house today, all the wood is de-nailed and ready for burning.
I have also cleaned and disinfected the houses to put the Silkies and
the Sablepoots in tonight, so their run can come down tomorrow. I have
also moved the 5-6 weeks olds from their brooder into a hutch in the
shed, cleaned the brooder out, disinfected it and have it ready for the next batch of chicks due this coming Monday.
Eggs we got today were:
1 Call Duck
1 Turkey
1 Lav Pekin
1 Black Pekin
1 Buff Pekin
1 Friesian Fowl
