Call Ducks Hatch
The eagerly awaited hatching of the call ducks started yesterday, and as I write, two have hatched another unable to break out during the night has died in shell, and I await two final eggs to hatch - if they do !
I was told they were Black call duck hatching eggs, but as you can see - only one black at the moment.
Was also lead to believe that call ducks are notoriously difficult to hatch, and the final incubation stage appears to be the case, I had to help the light coloured one get out of the shell at midnight, otherwise it probably wouldn't have made it. They are cute though !
