don't ever use them to set duck or geese eggs!
She found this out the hard way when the gooslings headed straight for the
pond and ol' mama turkey went right in after them and nearly drown herself
trying to "rescue" them from the evil water <g>

That's funny. Grandpa used to tell about using a hen to set duck eggs
and did the same except she just went crazy running around the edge of
the pond trying to "save" her babies. Maybe the heritage birds are
good mamas!
