In the Brooder
My duck Coffee went broody with 4 eggs but a week or two later it was down to 2 because of the raccoons I’m guessing. I found one of the eggs cold and far from the coop so my thought is it has to be a raccoon. Then just last night one of the two eggs hatched. I saw both eggs in the morning so I didn’t check for the second. Today I checked 3 times but could only see the duckling and Coffee. I didn’t even see any egg shells from the duckling that hatched. Would a duck eat the egg shells? Or could something have taken just the egg? This is the first time I’ve had a broody duck go through the full 28 days so I have no idea what to expect.
