Hello CyndiD, I have no experience with ducks what-so-ever but don’t see why it wouldn’t be a cantidate for duck eggs. You would have to turn them manually unless you’d only be hatching about 4 eggs or so.

What was your outcome???

@Harmony Fowl I read a great article where they had done extensive studies regarding egg turning and it’s effects. I wish I could find the article, but it’s not where I thought it was. I like your method, I should try that. Thanks for sharing! We had a power outage here this morning so I plugged...

@crazy_with_kidz_and_chicz Very beautiful chicks! I love the “eyeliner” look :D

I see you have arrows on your eggs, do you turn them the same way consistently?

Now the Incubator is filled with lovely BUFF LACED POLISH, Silkies, and Easter Eggers!!!! Today is Day 3 :)

@ASarcastic Hello fellow Manitoban! It’s a bit harder to find Point-of-lay birds than chicks but I have definitely come across some on Kijiji, so try there.

Two pipped yesterday and at 6am this little sweetheart broke out!

Hello! Sorry I’ve been MIA! I finally candled last night and only three look like they’re clearly growing. Two eggs I can’t see threw the shell but I see a defined air cell. So that was a bit of a shocker that there were so few but even a few chicks will be lovely.

Personally, I wouldn’t guess Polish, I think they have the “devil horn” looking combs. I would guess maybe part Icelandic. They can have the little poof on the head like that and they are a small bird.

@Harmony Fowl That’s amazing that your 4mo old Cockerel is sexually mature! What’ll breed is he?

Pretty Coloured eggs you have. Have you considered a digital reptile thermometer? They’re pretty cheap and available on amazon or eBay and are very accurate (-/+.5*). I have heard they are supposed to be more accurate than a Mercury thermometer. https://www.ebay.com/itm/162058689658 Keep me...

My first crack at incubating- went in this afternoon! If all goes well we’ll have some little chickies for St.Patties Day!

You’re so close!!! You must be SO EXCITED!!! Keep us posted with photos!

Hen to Rooster: "A-hem... My face is over here!"

Hello, I’m on the fence about which magicfly incubator to purchase, the yellow round (10 egg) one or the transparent oval shaped one(9-13 egg) . Any opinions?

@bobbi-j Regarding ventilation, I have an air inlet and a whirlybird.

Hello, my light goes on at 6 in the morning and 5 at night.

Hello all. I currently do not have any windows in my coop for sunlight so I’m using a “daylight” CFL lightbulb on a timer from 6am to 5pm. My question is... What can I do so that the chickens will get on their roosts because it goes from light to pitch black. I know you awesome chicken people...
