Wanted to share our happy news one of our Ancona ducks who sat on a nest of 18 eggs about a month ago hatched out 17 ducklings two days ago, very exciting. We also have another duck that went broody and we are anxiously awaiting her babies too. Our duck took her babies out on the pond...

We were actually using paint trays to take them swimming but I think we will try just leaving them in there like you say for them to drink out of too! Thanks!!!

Hello! We recently hatched out our first baby Ancona ducklings! They are doing really well, growing quickly but we have a couple of questions. They make a huge mess of their water with the pine shavings. We have tried putting the water up on a small piece of wood but they are still making a...

Our Ancona ducklings are hatching today!! These ducks are bred from parents who live on a 4 acre pond surrounded by ample pasture. These ducks are extremely hearty and self-sustainable, we have not lost one to disease. We very minimally supplement their diet with natural non-medicated feed but...

I agree candle and then throw out, we had one out of 23 not hatch the other day, we couldn't see anything so we gave it another day and half and then tosed it.

I have read a couple of places that ducks can take up to 33 days to hatch sometimes, if it is that cold out maybe she needs a few extra days.

Ventilation is definitely key, our coop has big screen windows that can be closed in bad weather. Two other things my husband did that is helpful he put laying boxes on each side so we can reach in and grab eggs and put a ramp for the chickens at one end and a bigger door at the other end he...

We will be hatching Dominiques a week or so apart and plan on putting them together!

Our temperature went up really high with some our duck eggs, 110 the other night not sure what happened to that incubator it had been holding steady at 100 for so long. We have been candling regularly since then and so far most are still moving around very well. I am afraid we may have cooked...

I have heard about this before, I keep wondering if one of our chickens may do this too.

We have candled both our Dominique chicken eggs and our Ancona duck eggs. Our duck eggs are very easy to see through so we are able to tell which are good and which are not. Our chicken eggs however are very dark and we were not able to see through them to tell. We had thought that might be...
