Fancy Chicken Raises Little Duckling

When I gave this Silky hen some eggs to incubate, I had no idea what would come out. One contained life, and a sweet little surprise hatched. But can this fancy chicken raise an even fancier duckling? I was curious what species of duck it would turn to be. I wasn't disappointed....
And then all grown up, together they raised another clutch. Are you able to tell me the species?

The Duck is a wood duck. I have plenty but, they are wild and nest by my pond. I have 1 broody Hen Chicken (Rhode Island Red), and 1 broody Hen Turkey. They sit on chicken eggs, goose eggs, duck eggs, turkey eggs. Any eggs. When they hatch, it could be anything in the nest. They even sit on each others nests. They dont mind at all. They are proud of their babies, even the ones that dont look like them. 😁👍🏻

I am always touched by seeing the gentle, thoughtful care for the tiniest new birds here. I would not have known to dampen the shell to help this chick survive. Everyone needs encouragement and to know they are not alone. You can see in that newborn chick’s eyes that his first experience outside the egg was that he felt safe and warm and cared for.

@Frank-wr2nf 2 жыл бұрын

You can’t just pull them out of the egg when they’re ready to hatch, they’re attached to the skin like layer under the shell. If you open the egg you will rip off the part of them that is attached. The water dissolves the part that glues them to the egg.

@@dianea3324 You are correct. They are leathery. By appearance they look and feel like shell but, when they open you see they are like a leather sack. The membrane in chicken eggs more closely resembles a reptile egg but if course much thicker. Most will dry out if it's not humid enough where they are laid/buried. That is correct about reptile eggs not being able to be turned. The reason is that the majority of reptiles lay their eggs and leave. They don't stay around for hatching. I have only seen mothering type behavior in Crocodiles and Alligators. So therefore there would be no parent to stay around to continually turn the eggs. So the develop the air pocket on the top side. If they are turned after a brief period they will suffocate and die or drown depending on how humid the nest is.

That sure brought back memories! My grandma gave me my first job on the farm, gathering eggs from the henhouse. She gave me my basket and told me to gather as many as I could find. It took me awhile but when I went back to the kitchen I said "Well Grandma, it was quite a fight! But I got them! Here!" She looked at all the peck marks on my hands and arms and said "OH NO! You got my setting hens!" (come to find out, she didn't think I was tall enough to get up to those chickens on the "upper floors" of the henhouse but I did! I wanted to do a good job) I had no idea what that meant, setting hens. this was over 65 years ago, but I do remember fighting those mama chickens! Grandam was able to figure out which eggs were which and put them back, then showed me later what setting hens meant, even letting me hold the baby chickens. Well, I learned a tough life lesson, that some chicken moms really fight for their babies. Growing up on my grandparents farm was amazing, it was like stepping back in time. No running water, no electricity, everything was from the farm, milk, butter, eggs, vegetables and of course meat which was the hardest thing to learn about. So different from today, sometimes I think it might be a good lesson for kids to work on a farm for awhile, you would definitely never hear them say "I'm bored!"

She is a beautiful hen and I love her personality. The way she looked after that little duck with such care and interest is so sweet.. Thank you soo much for letting her be a mother. And it seems she loved being one. Hope you give her more babies to look after. Be happy, little Silkie :) 🕊️🦢🐔🦆🌷🌱
