Duckling Watch day 1

Without actually looking into the specifics of it, I think that Lady's eggs should be hatching pretty soon. I was even dreaming about it last night - thinking about dates and trying to work it out when it would happen. Duck incubate for 28 days and I'm pretty confident that these eggs would be fertilised (thanks Tommy) so it should be any day day. I'm very excited.

Miss Muffet seems to be putting on a little weight, which is great news - now she just needs to start preening again and I'll be happy. I'll be sure to get some photos when the new additions arrive. So the anniversary of the ducks dying last year came and went last week, I thought about them as I walked past their graves. I'm very lucky still to have Speedy the wonder chicken and Tommy.
