Ducks

No, the young are born, but then crawl into a pouch where they continue developing.

I tend to just weight the goose egg for cakes and do the equivalent weight in flour, butter and sugar; however you could weigh a chicken egg and goose egg and work it out that way?

yes you can it will just hatch difference day

Depends on the type of egg. A rooster and chicken egg the thinner side is always up, because that is the head of the chick.

i don't know if you can but i think you put fire around it for 2 weeks (minecraft time)

Generally you will notice a distinct quack from females at about 4 - 6 weeks of age, getting louder as they mature. The males do not quack.

Yes. Ducks and chickens are often housed together in the same pens and coups. Remember that ducks do not roost on perches, but on the ground. The floor of the coup needs to be dry and clean for this reason. Also, there needs to be a place for the ducks that is not directly beneath the chicken roosts.

I have raised chickens and ducks together for a few years and have had no problems.

If a person touched them or something scared her away from her nest. Also if the eggs havent hatched after 28-30 days, the mother will give up on them.

This is called 'brooding'. What the hen is doing is incubating the eggs using her own body heat and moisture to keep the eggs at a perfect temperature to allow a chick to form inside the egg. Twenty one days of this and a chick will hopefully emerge from the shell.

yes

Depending on how long this egg had been abandoned when you found it, and how long it had been incubated there is a remote possibility that you could continue the incubation process. If it had been incubated for 7 day prior to you finding it, touch a small bright flashlight to the top of the egg to see if there is any life / growth. You need an egg incubator. Incubation periods and hatching periods require different temperatures and humidity, as well the number of turns the egg requires per day. This sounds like a lot of work and equipment for one egg, doesn't it? Your best bet may be to take the egg to a hatchery or your local zoo, where you know they have all the required equipment and technology at their finger tips. More input from FAQ Farmers: * Yes, it can and why not try? If you do not have an incubator make one... I have hatched a chicken egg in a toaster oven before. They imprint too - meaning that when you hatch waterfowl YOU ARE the mother!!! PLEASE KNOW THE GOSLING WILL DROWN IF PUT IN WATER IF NOT HATCHED BY ITS MAMA.

Normally, no. If they do start to smell then you have rotten eggs.

Sounds like your asking how to tell the difference between fertile and infertile. If so after 7 or 8 days you can candle the egg to look for embryo growth. Candling is nothing more than shining a bright light at the end of an egg and peering into the egg.

On the the other hand if your referring to the difference between a fowl egg and a reptile egg. Then your answer is fowl eggs are hard shelled and reptile eggs are soft and leathery.

It really depends on the antibiotics you are using. I have had good results from a hatch started while my hens were on a mild antibiotic. Best to check with your grain supplier or the package insert from the medication.

Yes

If no roaster one hen will start to fertilize the eggs.

exactly that. An egg that has not been fertilized. This is typically done between a male and female of the same type. Ex: Chicken and Chicken; Frog and Frog; Catfish and Catfish; and the list goes on.

I'm pretty sure all male chickens (AKA Roosters or cockerels) have tail feathers. Actually, roosters are the pretty chickens with really really long tail feathers. If a male chicken is lacking tail feathers, they were probably pulled out by an outside source.

tail bud, wing bud, nasal pit, allantois, and vitelline vein.

yes it is the same answer. that guy is awesome Yes. hmmm. I'm not sure ... wasn't it a woman?

In 72 hours the tail bud and allantois vitelline vein, wing bud, also the nasal pit appears, all the things that are not present in the 48 hour chick.

no the medication will stay in the hen but the egg will not at all be affected by the medication therefore it will not affect people either

I read recently on line that Muscovy's take longer than all other ducks, and all others are 28 days... I want to say Muscovy's was 30 or 31 days, but not positive. google helped me.

Due to the sides quantity of different police forces in the world this is very difficult to quantify. Also there are many different government agencies which may or may not be classified as police forces, such as a fisheries agency.
