Bring on the babies!

Post: # 235005Post Mrs H »

I'm very excited about what the next few weeks may bring! My goose is sitting on 6 eggs, she has been for about 3wks now. I was given 12 fertile duck eggs so I have 8 under a broody chook and 4 under a banty. I was lent a broody chook today as I have 6 fertile rhode island eggs to collect.
I know there r no guarantees but I'm very excited to see if any hatch. I've also had loads of fun with the kiddies building r broody boxes!!!
Fingers crossed!!!
