No, the father does not have to stay around after a duckling is born as once a duckling starts walking soon after it has hatched it can generally look after itself as long as you or the mother duck provide food, water, warmth and shelter.

My duck laid an egg which has a real little crack.. My female duck died on Sunday after laying the egg. I did not know she laid an egg and on on Tuesday I found the egg. Is it still alive?

It would still be viable but the crack in the egg will probably render it useless for hatching. Cracks in eggs allow bacteria and disease to enter the fertilized eggs and effect the viability. Most cracked eggs do not make it to full hatch.


What color are Goose?

That's simple they're white with brown spots. We have several breeds of geese and until now they have all laid plain white eggs, without any spots. We just found a big brown speckled egg in the hen house the exact same size as our duck eggs and the smaller white goose eggs. Who laid the huge brown egg, a goose, a duck or one of the new chickens?
