June duck egg hatch along

[Luv Ducks]

Oh shoot, completely forgot about this thread, I'm sorry! (says one Canadian to the other)

I have indeed been having some hatches, one of my broodies has a bunch of fosterlings, and I lost another broody so I brought her eggs in and have them hatching now. Three so far, and one pipped but not zipped.

Also have two internal pips from my incubator eggs. I don't know if I'll get more than those, though.

Still three Muscovy and two 'regular' ducks on nests. One due next week!

I think that's it for duck eggs, unless some of the broodies hatch some out before the end of the month. I forgot to mark the dates!

I haven’t been on here in quite awhile! Life has been just nuts!

2 eggs have made it to lockdown from the 6 I started with

To console myself I got these two lovely ladies yesterday and already got an egg

Yes they are Thank you!
I was so pleased to find them and just 15 minutes from me. They are a year old and just finished a molt. They were happy girls with their new space. Now just need my 2 eggs to hatch.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for the broodies to hatch out babies.

Any idea how far along they might be?

One of my eggs looks further along than the other when I candled today. Some minor shadowing which seemed quite early. Air cells seem to be sloped well and on track. I sure wish I had broodies to manage things for me! Someday

One of them should hatch out next week. The other should be due anytime.

As for the Muscovy... No idea!!! They should all start to hatch soon though. I think. I really should have marked down dates...

Looks like I’ve got an early one. External pip on the wrong end and my other has a lot of shadowing. I’m working tomorrow then off for 5 days so I’m hoping they slow down and wait for me! Hatch date was scheduled for the 30th

I managed to candle the eggs from my 'regular' ducks, and they were all duds and quitters.

Now lets hope some of the Muscovy hatch.
