Ducklings Anyone?
Ok, so on a whim we decided to incubate some of our ducks eggs. Well we have two pipping out of their shell as we speak! I love baby ducks. Hopefully this time tomorrow I might have some pictures of some babies to share. They are magpies and indian crested runner duck eggs.

What happens when they hatch, do you have a mother duck to put them under or are you planning on raising them yourself?

We hand raise them ourselves. We've done this in the past with great success. They are a lot of fun and educational for the kids too. We got a couple almost out!

What happens after that? Where do the ducks go? (And where are the pics!?)

Hiya Prin! After the ducklings are fully feathered we have a friend who has a large pond that will take most of them. We will keep a few for our own home flock. They are so much fun and easy to keep. My husband used up the memory card on the camera doing a video! I may have one I can post. They are still working on coming out though. I will DEFINELTY have some when they hatch out.
Here is one. The color isn't that great though...
