Dang mexican tree ducks showed up yesterday. We have had boxes up on the property for well over fifty years and this year we have the smallest amount of woodducks I have ever seen. I sure hope these invaders are not out competing the natives.

I end up with both, but the black bellies have never pushed out my woodies, and they tend to nest after the first woody broods anyway.

That's awesome. Our Pond Mallards hatched out 13 fuzz balls a week ago. We made them the Hen Houses like Delta make for the prairie.

Have 11 more in our flight pen that are laying like crazy. Have 48 eggs in incubator and another 30 going in tonight. Then going to let the hens raise their own.

Since the mallard hatched hers out of the Hen House the Squealers have already moved in and are laying.

A guy that owed me a favor built ones from leftover western cedar he had at his house. Smells like an old barn
