I couldโve kicked myself for not getting pictures of the dummy with his head still stuck ๐ but I will take some other pictures of the twins once both in the brooder
2nd duckie hatched this morning! Itโs another yeller :eek:
It had pipped toward the pointy end so I popped the cap and waited patiently and had to help it finish because itโs little head was stuck in the egg ๐คญ
I did learn somethingโฆโฆ.call ducks donโt do well on paper towels in the brooder as itโs still to slippery so I put my grippy from one incubator down which is making it a little better
Update from me: Casper is doing well but lonelyโฆ..next possible hatch is internally pipped! The other 2 remaining eggs are in the hatcher but not due to hatch until Sunday or Monday ish.
Casper the call duckling was doing well this morningโฆโฆI pinched off the remaining umbilical attachment to the eggโฆโฆ.will figure out a brooder tonight and move the next couple of eggs to the hatcher
He hatched around 9 but looks like thereโs still some unabsorbed yolkโฆ..will see how heโs doing in the morning!
And I just realized I havenโt set up anything for a brooder yet :th
I started popping off the cap about 30 minutes ago at over 24hr mark since I saw the external pip. Still alive and chewing. Had a small vein still so Iโm just monitoring and may have to add some moisture to the membrane if he doesnโt continue to progress on his own.
