Yeah it seems that one particular females genes shows through in at least one. My tri is probably the most friendly and the most broody.

(then she's mean) are they both girls??

yep!

Guess I get to join the club! Got my hatching eggs today. Ordered 12, got 15, 13 made it through shipping although I probably could salvage one of the broken eggs by sealing the crack. They are now sitting on the counter to settle down after shipping. The hygrometer in the incubator currently reads just over 60% and temperature sits at 37.5C.

The 7 largest eggs are going in after dinner tonight. and the remaining 6 are going under a chicken.

How eggs-citing! I love hatching these guys. They grow SO fast. Hope you have a great hatch.

are you kidding or are you being mean?? I'm new here as of today and now I'm afraid to post anything as I may post in the wrong spot... cuz this seemed like a legit anacona post to me... no? Yes?

Thanks! Well I saw the eggs don't turn in the brinsea, some turn a little bit but not really. Either because a) eggs are too big and don't touch the bottom, or b) the bottom is too slippery and eggs just slide across during the turn.

Not sure where you pulled the quote from, but yes, this thread is for Ancona ducks. Some people take that to extremes, but most of us have no problem with other breeds coming into the conversation at times. You just have to kinda overlook the uptight people at times.
