Shadow and Cinderella

The ducks have finally started laying eggs. Cinderella is laying white eggs and Shadow appears to be laying dove gray eggs. She has only produced 1 so far, so it might change as egg production becomes regular, but not too much.

According to the literature most Cayuga ducks lay black or green eggs. So we’ll wait and see. The first one was small, but they always are for the first 12 or so eggs, then they get larger.

Raising ducks and chickens is a lot of fun and you learn as you go. I highly recommend it, and take the time to get to know your fowl. I have one little chicken that follows me all the time and talks nonstop. I call her Nagy. 😄
