Hey there. I wanted to share my candling pictures and incubation progress with you.
I bought 14 Duck Eggs (Indian Runners) and they were shipped to me. Luckily just 4 had bad air cells and none had Saddle Air Cells. I hate that kind a lot !
Well, from 14 eggs only 4 were fertile and 1 died at...
Awwww so sweet! He was really curious to know the outside world lol
That thing on the bottom should heal within 48 hours I think.. just keep it clean and warm :)

Hi all! I have a HUGE problem.
I ordered 36 Quail eggs from EBAY! They arrived all ok but 3. They were cracked so I tossed them. I incubated the eggs about 22 days ago (They are Coturnix Quails) about 18 eggs were not fertile (I candled them at day 10). and the rest had dark massed inside...
Did he drink it?

my duckling stayed on the ground for 2 full days untill it started to move more..
How is the 'yolk' now? It should get black and dry...
I am very happy to hear he is alive!
Buy something to disinfect the wound. I got OCTENISEPT that is for animals too and it does not hurt it like other disinfectant .Just ask at your pharmacy !

Thank you for your reply!
My duckie is doing well so far. Eats, poops, cheeps and sleeps !
For the water I used a plastic box with the lid on and i cut a hole in it.. i added some marbles just to be sure! I change the water every 6 hours or so.. just to be super sure its clean!
I use Towels...

I have the same problem with my Duckling and I bought a disinfectant that does not burn. I spray on it and It will fall in some days! He is very ative now and has no problems at all!

I would really recommend you a JANOEL-10. I used it for my Ducklings and it works really good!

It is easy to clean and they will give...
Hi!
I had a real hard time finding Duck Eggs at this time of the year.. I bought my last duck eggs on ebay 1 month ago and since then I haven't found anything aymore! I know that ducks won't lay if it is too cold... At least the German Ducks here :D (I live in Germany)
Here he/she is <3 <3
What do you think is it a female or a male?
It got very active and is eating and pooping around happily! It even jumped at me cheeping !! I am soo in love... Do you think it will survive?
