    Should I put this duckling in the brooder or wait?

    Hi so I have one duckling in the process of hatching while the other 3 eggs haven't made an internal pip yet (though 2 of them are trying). Once the duckling hatches and dries off, should I leave it in the incubator and wait for the others to hatch or put it in the brooder?

    Duck Egg - Floating Bubble

    Hii so I bought 14 call duck eggs off of Ebay! 5 of them definitely have a duckling growing in them! Although I do have a slight concern. A few of them came with these floating bubbles inside the egg, so when you rotate the egg, the bubble would move. Egg 3 and Egg 5 both have one of those...

    Is it possible and okay to incubate duck eggs from the refrigerator?

    Hi! This is probably a dumb question but I'm curious I still have some of Newt's fertile eggs and we weren't planning on hatching any more of her eggs so we stored them in the fridge I heard people store their eggs up to 24 hours in the freezer before hatching them (when shipped) So basically I...
