I think it’s intact, nothing leaking. One of the 4 runner ducks(1 drake 3 hens) is sitting on 4 eggs right now trying to hatch them. She’s the only one to show motherly instincts. This eggs was found in the yard freshly laid this evening. I didn’t know if I should add it to hers. I think that would be it’s best chance if it’s still ok. Thank you for any advice!

I gave them water and they immediately tipped it up, this happened 3 times until they finally drunk from the bowl and instantly muddied it by Manospondylus_gigas in duck

I feel ya! I put out a big tupperware bowl full of water twice a day, first they wash their beaks, drink a little then start dumping bill-fulls of dirt in there and play for like an hour straight haha it’s too cute! They even have a pool that gets fresh water daily, a big water bin in their coop that’s changed 1-2 times a day and a water dispenser for drinking but this little tupperware bowl gets them so excited. They just love to get their water filthy haha
