How did your hatch turn out?? 🙏🏼

Thank you, I’m grateful for the two that made it for sure. Going to use this as a large learning experience. I didn’t do the float test on the others, I haven’t researched it much but I’ve done it once before but will research more!

Two beautiful ducklings, unfortunately no other eggs made it. There weren’t any signs of life so I pulled back shell on the air sac and still no signs of life. They had all passed 😔

That’s where I have no idea what to do. I see no movement at all when I candle them and no beaks in the air sac, but if they are alive I do not want to try to help after losing that one earlier unless I’m sure I know what I’m doing. Such an exhausting experience. I could do the float test with...

I have a few chicken eggs in the incubator too, but these ones are the last of the duck eggs. When I candle them one of them is like all black except for the air sac, the others you can see veins close to the air sac and there is another space on the other end of the egg as well in those three...

Apparently she had Cayuga females and a Rouen male, as well as Toulouse geese females and a white Chinese goose male

Incubator pics are them currently. The picture of the one on the rag is the one who is out successfully in the incubator, that was when I was helping it. I lost one that was positioned wrong, it was trying to pip opposite of air sac, I was chipping away shell and it was already little to no...

I’m sorry I didn’t answer any of your questions 😅 My incubator is a very simple one with the temp and humidity recorded on the screen on the top, can’t remember the model off of the top of my head. I also don’t know what kind of ducks though I know there isn’t any Muscovy. I got the eggs from a...

Thank you, so far my husband said the one I tried to help is still alive. I may go ahead and get the cap off of the other two and candle the others that haven’t pipped when I get home. He’s been keeping the humidity up as much as possible but it was definitely shrink wrapping for sure. When I...

I have 9 duck eggs in the incubator. Tuesday was day 28. Our furnace broke in the middle of the night on Monday night and we woke up to humidity at like 49%. Of course I did everything I could to bring it up and then left for work. My husband tried all day and barely had it in the 60s. I got it...
