S.O.S. Duck incubator

[AShelDuck1]

My duck eggs are too big and when the egg turner turns them they don’t spin.

Help?

A picture may help.

Too big so when the egg turner turns it just moves them but doesn’t spin them

I'd order one of the turkey/goose egg turners off of Etsy or Amazon and just hand turn them until then.

Something like one of these would work.

How often do I turn by hand?

Man I have more than 10 eggs

How often do I turn by hand?

3-5 times a day. Write an X on one side and an O on the other, exactly opposite. Put all of them on X, and then turn them all to O a few hours later. I like to alternate directions too, so left to O then right to X, etc.

What day are they on? How many more? You'll most likely have a few duds and early quitters, you might end up with around ten depending on how many to have.

Day 4 now. Discovered it day 3. I’m freaking out that there’s going to be a problem. Since they weren’t turned the first three days. Which apparently is detrimental.
