The Answer apparently is to put false eggs in the hen and duck house. They are rubber so when the hen pecks at them she will learn not to eat them. Luck was on my side this am. just as i walked in the enclosure with the rubber eggs a chicken had just laid an egg. quick switch and yes the chicken egg eater pecked at the rubber egg and then lost interest. Fingers crossed heres hoping!!
Back to 4 times a day lamb feeds. These first two days getting them to accept the teet and bottle milk always interesting and time consuming but enjoyable.
Decided to keep the two females so there is is a facebook competition to name them. free bottle of home made sauce on offer!
