    Based on the size of its feet and legs, and the length from legs to tail, I'd say you have a little female

    Yes I didnt keep him in there long. It ended up tearing free of its cord (there wasnt really any yolk left anyway) so I rinsed it off and stuck it back in the bator. Has a swollen abdomen so I'm giving it the same treatment as the first one, seems like it will make it too! :)

    Incubation progress of Muscovy eggs

    Its been a really stressful week.. ducklings started hatching and I'm down to 2 from 6. One just made it out after 3 days of struggling but the cord was still attached and the other one has internally pipped but thats it. It is now day 37. The duckling that hatched has torn off its umbilical...
