Possible Twin duck eggs

[Hykiko]

I am so sorry! I haven’t ever hatched ducks so I don’t have any duckling advice but you may want to post a thread in the duck section or in the help section and people may have tips for you!! I hope your little one makes it!!

thank you, I've done as much research as I can on my own. for incubating duck eggs, and there at the end the humidity is about 80-90 temp is 99.5 every now and then it jumps to 100. but right back down to 99.5, I've had to help all eggs hatch as well both chicks and ducklings. I wait till they broken the egg first, give them 12 hrs to see if they've made progress before I assist. the membrane around them by 12+ hrs later after pipping it's shrink wrapped to their body and they are chirping like crazy wanting help, I do know when my hens are incubating, they peck at the egg and chicks when their hatching. That's the only thing I can think that is different between me incubating and the hens doing it themself.

Sadly about 11pm last night the baby duckling passed away.

I took these pictures shortly before it passed away, this way it knew it wasn’t alone while I was with them.

I’m sorry

I’m sorry

not your fault but thank you. After my last few chicken eggs hatch I'm try a batch of just duck eggs and see if they do any better.
