A woman received a big surprise she bought some duck eggs a supermarket. Three the eggs hatched. The woman now has three baby ducks, or ducklings. The woman named the ducklings Beep, Peep and Meep. Charli Lello, 29, bought the eggs the Waitrose supermarket last month. She was spending all day home because she was furloughed her job as an assistant manager a shop. She decided to use her free time to do things the house. Ms Lello told reporters that she got the idea incubating the eggs after seeing a video on Facebook. The video showed how someone hatched quail eggs after buying them a supermarket.

Lello said the ducklings would live, "a very happy life". She said they would be good company her pet chickens. She explained why she tried her experiment. She said: "While I was Waitrose, I saw the duck eggs and thought maybe they would [hatch]. I was so excited them to hatch, but I still had the back my mind that these are supermarket eggs." She said she was surprised when the eggs hatched. She said: "They have been collected, bashed around a delivery truck, then rattled around a trolley onto a shelf." She added that it had been an "amazing" experience. She called her ducklings "the cutest little balls fluff". A duck farm said it is very unusual ducklings to hatch supermarket eggs.
