I've added chocolate runner duck eggs to the duck bator and between my broody house chicken and a bator I added some silkie eggs from somebody else. I'm not hatching any of mine right now. I'm trying to add new blood to my flock.

Got lucky. Went to feed and the hen had abandoned her nest today after 7 chicks hatched. can't hold it against her as another hen had injured her a while back. Not able to save the other few eggs, too cold. These were my BXred Brazilian eggs. The chicks were slightly chilled so I popped them in the incy to warm up then banded them and in the brooder with other chicks hatched Saturday. WHEW!

Last month I hatched cortunix quail, silkies, bbs orphingtons, a pekin duckling and 2 sweedish ducklings, aameracaunas and some I have no idea what they are. I got all of them from different swaps on a poultry swap. Oh and my house chicken hatched 2 silkies that came from our silkies.
Right now I have more bbs orphington, indian runner, sweedish and pekin duck, ringneck pheasant, various colors of guinea and red and white silkie. I have more guinea eggs in the mail on there way here. Then in a couple of weeks i have more cortunix quail due to arrive in the mail.
I was mistaken on the color ducks I posted earlier. I said chocolate but they where sweedish.
