  • Overview of ducks sitting on their eggs for 3 weeks, encountering a rat snake, a chicken who eats their eggs, and more! We weren't sure if our duck would stay on her nest but she has! We also have a broody hen sitting on her nest of 11 eggs. This video shows typical behavior of broody ducks and hens as they sit on their nests up until hatching day. See the next video to know if any of the eggs hatch.

    Hi Marcie
    In your last video you asked for suggestions of videos.
    Sara from Our Tribe of Many, shared all
    her birth stories, it would be lovely to
    hear more about your journey as a Mum.
    Sarah’s family are not LDS but are a large homeschooling christian family, I have watched her channel grow over many years, they finally moved out of the city on to land.
    Thank You for sharing your story, I was
    only graced with one child, and I love watching mamas with big families.
    Love, Prayers and Blessings to your family.
    Katie 🇬🇧

      Oh thank you for the suggestion! I do have all my birth stories on my blog www.singlemomonafarm.com But a video would be fun! I wasn't sure if people were interested but I love to hear birth stories like you do. You sound like a wonderful mother!

      That's a great idea to do some recipes and cooking! Thanks for the suggestion. I do have some recipes on my blog singlemomonafarm. But the video is a better idea. I'll try to do that in a couple of weeks. No, I don't have a PO box yet. I guess I should get one. Thanks for your blessings!

    Where did you find the snake!? Was it inside the hen house? Love the chickens & seeing your beautiful family life.

      ​@@singlemomonafarm wouldn't that be a safety issue for your children?

      @@kamicastillo1451 Yes, I haven't felt comfortable with it for various reasons but I do thoughtfully consider everyone's ideas without just saying no. Because I do need income. But I still feel best about doing homeschool/mothering coaching and selling my curriculum on my blog and other websites. It's taking time, but slowly building and I hope it'll one day be enough to provide for us.

    If you live in Virginia, we do and learned after killing a snake in our hen house, it is illegal to kill any snake.

    I bet your egg theif is a snake. I live in VA also and keeping snakes out is a huge problem. Theyll take your hatchlings also.

      Oh, scary! Seven of our chicks have hatched. I'd better watch them more carefully. Thanks for letting me know!

    That was a good black snake - what a shame.
