    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Fantastic....so excited for you. We're inundated with eggs so I've popped 2 duck and 5 bantam eggs into the incubator today. Why not they're all so cute. I've decided to sell some chooks (chickens) so I can try some other duck breeds. There's a limit to the number of birds I'm allowed to keep...

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Yayy so happy for you. 3 of mine hatched in the end. Wiggles and jiggle didn't make, I think the were too big to position themselves as they didn't even try to inner pip. The other 2 I was always unsure about as their air cells looked weird. 3 out of 7 is good for me but it's so sad to lose...

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Sorry you haven't had any luck but sooo cute. I'd love to add breeds but I will need new runs for that to work. I'll go try and take a picture through the lid of the bator. 2 babies now and they're trashing the place. I don't want to move them until the other pipped egg hatches.

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Not sure what's going on. Wiggles seems to have stopped wobbling and I suspect one that pipped yesterday may have failed. Can I take it out to look or should I just leave it?

    Really sorry to hear that. These little blighters break our hearts. I've only successfully hatched 3 ducklings to date and 1 died after a couple of days. I"m putting together a new kitchen to keep myself from staring at my eggs all day!!

    1 pipped egg this morning but not one of the wigglers so now I'm worrying about them because I really have to watch to see them move now.

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Keeping everything crossed this end. Sorry to hear of your sad news. How far did they get, guess I'm wondering how you know. Some of mine aren't wobbling but without taking them out there's no way of knowing if they're ok so I'm just assuming they are as one egg is way wobblier than the...

    Oops heavy fingered this morning... Not struggling to break through the membrane. It's been 2 days of very active wobbling so I confess I'm beginning to worry.

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Sorry to hear about the fail. From what I can tell mine are still alive but doesn't look as though any have internally pipped. 3 ate wobbling big time but shining the torch through the top of the incubator I can still see dark mass and bright air cell. Just hoping that they're still...

    I love my pekins they're so funny to watch. I'll keep you posted on my eggs. I took a photo so I could see what was moving when I'm not watching. 3 moving atm but the other 4 weren"t quite as far along as the others. Hate not being able to candle to check on them. Trying to come up with...

    Hatching Duck eggs....I messed up...UPDATE.....#1

    Yay for pipping. Have put mine on lockdown after all as one was dancing happily in the turner. All but one have great air cells so I'll keep a close eye on that one.
