Twenty-four hours after you set them is day one.

Think of it like a baby, at the end of their first year, they are one.

Good luck to everyone going in lockdown! And congrats to those with chicks! I candled my friend's eggs I'm hatching for her today. The first set is at 8 days and I had to toss 1 that was clear and one looks like a quitter but I'm gonna wait a bit to make sure. Those are down to 16. The second set of 15 all look good at 4 days. She will be happy .

Now for my eggs! My first set are on day 12 and all are moving and looking good of the 16. The second batch was swap eggs of EE/OE and 14 are definitely good at 5 days the other three I'm not sure as they are dark!! I think one is clear but waiting. I tossed a quitter coturnix egg so I'm left with 12 that are moving and doing good! I'm only a few days from lockdown for them YAY! This is day two on my six Indian Runner chocolate ducks and can't wait till I can candle them and see veins!!!

Thanks for the pics and calendar.  this is my first time hatching so it's very useful!  We should start hatching on Monday but the chickens are doing most of the work. :)

Thanks for trying. I put my questions inthe duck forum and I have received some responses. Thanks

Do you have a special place that you candle yours in to see them better?  Or do you do it in the evening when it is dark out?

All my eggs turned out to be duds.

I did get some new eggs from a farmer friend of mine and those are under her now. So I guess we are on reset with her.
