    Do freshly laid eggs develop faster than eggs laid a week or more ago?

    Do the embryos in freshly laid eggs develop faster than the embryos in eggs that were laid days or weeks before? I've noticed that an egg laid yesterday develops faster than eggs laid last week. Does anyone know if there's any science to this? Or am I just imagining things?

    I have a mallard thats a year old and that I’ve noticed has gone broody. I noticed since about Tuesday she has been laying on eggs. I did a little research today and waited for her to come out of the coop and went to look at her eggs with a flashlight. I don’t think the eggs are viable but I...

    Bantam and duck eggs

    I own a Brinsea octagon incubator and was wondering if you can put bantam eggs and duck eggs into it at the same time? Will the humidity and whatever else be ok or will this not work out? Many thanks for you help

    Which incubator do I choose?

    everyone needs an incubator if you’re going to hatch eggs. I don’t own any chickens currently, and haven’t for 3 years at least. Homing pigeons have become my newest interest. Amazon does have incubators, but some of the reviews say that the temperature spikes up to high, killing the chicks. I...
