I didn’t hatch these beauties but picked them up this morning. The babies are 2 mos old and huge😀 Also in other non hatching news my daughter found this fawn in the grass🥰

It is a constant battle especially when they’re tiny. I have put mine in bins like you describe with a screen but my favorite way is to train them on sleeping in a small pet porter. I go out before I go to bed and shut the door then bring them onto my sunporch for the night. Sorry for your...

They can pip all kinds of ways. Sometimes they bust through and get a chunk of shell out and sometimes it’s just a tiny crack.

It can get pretty high without bring a problem and if the membrane is sticking to them hopefully some extra moisture will help.

Happy birthday 🎂

Maybe you could try bumping the humidity higher.

Soooo sweeet!!!

Make sure and let it settle for a while and see if it still is moving. There can be dark spots in bad eggs that will keep moving for a bit after you pick up or rotate the egg.

This is what happened to so many chicks in my last hatch😟 the only thinks I can think are that either my humidity was cumulatively too high or there was something that happened to the eggs before I got them.

Same

I’m trying to scan through the picture for the day 14’s. It looks like they’re all progressing in size except maybe the one you marked with the question mark. They don’t look too big to me, seems like your on track.

The do follow me! It’s so charming. I had them in their pool today while I was gardening and they peeped loudly for me when I went around a corner. I’ve thought about getting ducks for years & I wonder now why I waited so long.

Oh boy that is stressful! I don’t think 3 hours is too long for eggs to cool though. 🤞🏼Hopefully you can set her back on the right nest & they’ll be ok.

Thank you for the support. That is true it could be the eggs. They were for a customer so it could have to do with their flock or the handling. I hatched for them last year and the results weren’t great. But more like 75% not 40% 🫤 I am very pleased with the ducklings so far. They are a real...

Aww thanks. I know you’ve had plenty of your own trials with hatching this season. It’s helpful to be on here and have some perspective that ups and downs come with the territory…. Meanwhile Gosh! duckings grow fast!! I was not prepared for that!

I got behind this week! Congrats on all the hatching. My hatch from Monday didn’t go well😥 I knew something was off when I saw one of the first to zip failed to hatch. I ended up with 39 chicks out if 80 eggs in lockdown. With most if the remainder either failing to pip and a few just giving...

Well I’m not sure what’s going on with this hatch but I noticed some eggs fully zipped but looking weird not progressing. I reached in quickly and pulled them out but there were 2 dis after fully zipping?? I have no idea why. There were 2 from the normal side lying eggs and one from the upright...

Congrats on the fluff and the squish🥰🥰🥰

I’m moving this batch of customer naked necks eggs to the hatch shelf. They’re glowing because they’re sitting on my seedling shelf waiting while I sanitize the incubator before I pop them in there. I feel like it’s been running nonstop for so long I wanted to make sure the shelf under the hatch...

What’s going on with your egg? Come on babies!!! Hope all goes well for chicks and Raven.
