Mrs Frugal Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Latest news from the University of Nebraska Eggcam..... UPDATE Friday, April 1, 1:30 PM CT: Most of the chicks went to a farm family today. We candled the duck eggs and only one was fertile - we'll keep trying to find more duck eggs to hatch. In the meantime, we've put the egg in with another incubator filled with eggs from an assortment of birds. Keep watching - we'll post what kinds of eggs are on EGG Cam and the expected hatch date on Monday. Should be interesting to see what hatches !

Louise Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Just went to have a look expecting to see the duck egg maybe hatching - what a fright I got when confronted by .......................horses They have moved the camera until the eggs hatch and the chicks on it now must be a large room and there were a group of people on horseback looking at them I felt so daft as there were no chicks in sight at first just horses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Looks like they are in an Indoor-Arena ... nice chicks, and nice horses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Not bad given it must be about 6 or 7 am out there!! I am easily scared by horses I got kicked badly when I was little I will go near them but I am very wary no wonder I got a fright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
