    Mandarin ducks cracking their eggs!!

    Thank you for sharing your experiences. The first "batch" my ducks laid all ended up having those tiny lightening bolt looking cracks throughout. As I earlier stated none hatched except one , one I had to assist as it was completely shrink wrapped and still hadn't absorbed the yolk. It was...

    Mandarin ducks cracking their eggs!!

    That was my thinking last time and I pulled half of each ducks eggs. Half I incubated and half I left for nature to do its thing. None of the ducks hatched at all. Only one miraculously hatched for me...however it started hatching and was almost out of shell and I could clearly see the yolk...

    Mandarin ducks cracking their eggs!!

    Yes... 2 pairs of mandarins. The first clutch of eggs and now this one.. I only went in when the ducks were out of the box ...taking a quick swim. I check each box to see how many eggs they are sitting on. Then anywhere between 20 & 25 days I go back in and quickly shine my lil flashlight on...

    Mandarin ducks cracking their eggs!!

    Both my ducks seem to be crushing and cracking their own eggs. Separate nesting boxes. I grabbed 2 of 6 out of the one ducks nest (the other 4 were fine) All 6 are moving and I can see their little beaks in the air cell. So any day now I'm hoping to have little ones running around. However the...

    ISO very dark Black Copper Maran hatching eggs (8-9 on the Maran scale)

    It's crazy how difficult they are to find! Had I known I would have bought a heck of a lot more chicks 3 years ago when I got them just bc they were cheap. Lol. I paid only $3 /b. Looking back at pictures they were pretty comparable to snowbird quality..but I never paid much attention bc I've...

    hen shuffling eggs on hatch day!??

    I've always been an incubator of eggs so I'm used to those guidelines. I've only had one Buff Orp lay and hatch eggs, but I was not around for the process..she took off one day and actually thought nature got ahold of her until almost 2 months later showed up with 14 babies. Lol. Okay, I...
