Hey friends I have a quick question regarding a temperature for day 28.
Facts:
-Mandarin duck eggs
- Day 28
-Internal pipe - no sign
-External pipe- None
-Little to no sign of movement upon candling
-Float test - all positive and have certain wiggling.
So it's clear that my ducks are alive and well however I am on day 28 and there are still no signs of piping..... That I can see
I also know to reduced the temperature to:
93 for the piping stage
97 near completion of hatching
My question is.... Is 93 an still appropriate temperature since they are obviously delayed in piping OR shall I compromise the temperature at this point to around a 97 degrees until I sure of piping before reducing temp. With the humidity between 60 and 70.
These little guys are a little late is this normal for mandarins
