The Duck Thread

That made me spit soda out of my mouth and smile anyway. Thanks, not sure how either.

Sorry about the soda. Just releasing pent up emotions. How are the chicks doing this morning?

My one and only Aylesbury duck egg is only on day 23 but when I candled it I could see it's bill was trying to stretch the membrane into the aircell!! Shall I put it into lockdown early? Will it be ok or is that fatal to put them in there a couple days early? Thankyou for any advice given.

The laugh was nice lol. They all survived the night and the little one I was worried about is doing well. Up and about this morning. Nice to have a batch of chicks make it for a change. Really love the heating pad brooder. They seem to sleep so much better. Didnt realize they could actually sleep the whole night without a peep.

I'm so glad they are doing fine. I also use the heating pad for chicks but ducklings grow to fast.

I know I should not think this way but.....maybe a postal person decided they needed your ducklings more than you.

Maybe. Still nothing at all on them. I'd rather someone took them than get a box of dead babies next week honestly. Sucks not knowing.

I agree. It's the not knowing that's killing me.

This is all I have on it. And the last one on the 6th was computer generated not actually scanned.

I sure wish some news would come. This is just so sad.

HI, I'm fairly new to incubating also. If this were mine I think id wait until it broke into the air cell or day 25 which ever came first. I do not think it would hurt anything to lock down now. But you can not candle after they go into lockdown. Good luck and keep us posted

Have you tried using your tracking number on " packagetrackr.com " ??? Maybe it will show something new.
