Ancona duckling picture

I've finally gotten around to taking some pictures of my week-old Ancona ducklings! They were hatched in my new Brinsea Octogon ECO incubator, along with a batch of guinea eggs I bought off ebay. I had a pretty good hatch in it.

I tried vent sexing two of them and either they are both females or I don't know how to do it yet.

I have another batch of duck eggs in 'lockdown' that should be hatching soon--- more Anconas, plus some Khaki Campbells, and Indian Runners. I've also got some Silver Appleyards and Dutch Hookbills in other incubators. I'm going to have quite a variety of duck breeds before too long!
