This thread just keeps getting better.

Thanks Mike! I'm just loving having our broody hen raising ducklings. This is her 3rd year going broody, and she finally gets to be the mom she always wanted to be.

Awww......your broody hen looks so happy. Your ducklings are adorable and I know ya'll will have so much fun with them. Awesome.

Everyday that you can watch the process of a hen setting, hatching & caring for the chicks just makes you realize how inadequate WE are when we try to do their job.

It's best if all animals can be mom raised, they learn to be/do as they should. But the care of hens & eggs & chicks, so tiny and frail, is amazing.

Yes, animal mom's can count. And they reprimand if needed.

I hope Edith has live eggs to hatch. If it turns out otherwise, I'd sure find some fertile eggs from others for her to set. She deserves that.
