Wanted 2 or 3 fertile partially incubated duck eggs urgently

Kim from Eyrewell Forest

Hi all

This is a random question I know. But I am hoping someone out there might have a broody duck on a large clutch who doesnt really want more ducklings and could give me 2 or 3 of her eggs for my broody duck to hatch. She is already sitting.


I have a broody duck sitting on non viable eggs. 3 hatched but two had to be assisted and one died. The two that were assisted imprinted on me and she wont take them back. I only had non viable eggs to replace the hatching ones with. All my other ducks are mothering, or not laying due to molting, so I have nofertile eggs myselfthat are viable. plus I dont know if she would sit another 4 weeks.

The resultant ducklings regardless of gender, would have a good permanent home here in Eyrewell with my other ducks and rescued ducks, living in a large free range enclosure with purpose built pond.

Any breed except muscovy considered (as my domestic ducks are all mallard derived and I dont want mules (mallard type-muscovy x). My current domestic flock are khaki campbell, khaki campbell x, runner x and one pekin :-)

If you can help plase text me asap on 020 406 41485
Thanks
Kim
