Hi
I had one duck egg hatch yesterday (incubator) unfortunately the rest of the eggs didn't hatch (the place that posted them to me messed up on the posting so they were in the postal system for too long) was hoping to get at least 2 hatch but wasn't really expecting any to hatch.
The thing is I now have a very lonely duck who keeps crying, and I feel so sorry for him, he is in the brooder I have put a small toy chick in there with her, (half her size), I keep going in and and holding her and talking to her, but I do have to work as well, I am lucky in the fact that I work from home, I cannot put her in my office as I spend large amounts of time on the phone, but do keep going in and seeing her.
There is another brooder in the same room as her that has 14 chicks in aged 3 weeks, I obviously cannot put her in there as they are too boisterous and they are chickens and she is a duck.
Any suggestions would be really helpfully as I feel so sorry for her.
