Title: First of this years Call Ducklings
Post by: Brucklay on May 22, 2013, 04:39:24 pm

Fudge who's always been a great mummy duck hatched her ducklings - 13 eggs in her nest and she managed to hatch 12 ducklings - she has a next box but prefers to make a nest in the run during the day and takes them into the box in the evening.

Oh so good to know she's still about Anne, we always loose females when they decide to nest outside their pen - even with searching sometimes you can't find them the day the decide to sit - they are lovely but equally drive me crazy sometimes!!
