Three 'Lovely' Ducklings Hatch from Eggs Bought at a U.K. Supermarket
A woman is smitten with her new pets after three duck eggs she bought from U.K. grocery store Morrisons hatched.
Deza Empson, 31, bought six Braddock-White Clarence Court duck eggs at the supermarket and put them in an incubator she purchased on Amazon to breed budgies — also known as parakeets.
She was shocked when she shone a light on the incubator five days later and could see little ducklings developing inside some of the eggs.
Three baby ducks ended up pecking their way out of their shells three weeks later. Ducklings River and Dusk arrived first, followed by Daisy a day later. They hatched on June 11 and 12.

The trio loves nothing more than to splash in the bath, and Daisy has grown so attached to Empson that she follows her around, snuggling on her shoulder.
Empson plans to keep Daisy, and River and Dusk will live with her cousin.

"When I first saw them move, I could hardly believe it. I was like, 'Oh my god. I'm getting ducks!'" she added.
Empson said she placed the duck eggs in her new incubator to test the apparatus. She wanted to ensure the temperatures inside the incubator were constant before she used it to breed budgies.
It was a surprise to Empson when the incubator test led to three hatchlings, which she believes are Aylesbury ducks.

A mum-of-five with a £62k household income has resorted to using Klarna to afford her food shop - due to the cost-of-living crisis. Laura Caine, 40, struggles to cover her family's monthly outgoings using her £1k-a-month universal credit payment and her husband Martin's £50k games programmer salary. The couple have five children - aged 18 to nine - and say feeding the brood three meals a day gets expensive so they have had to use the buy-now-pay-later service. In recent months Laura says she had to use Klarna to afford groceries as she "can't afford" to pay for a big shop upfront. Laura claims both she and Martin have both maxed out their credit cards after their energy bill shot up to £450-a-month from £200.
