I'm Building an Incubator - please don't bother asking permission to laugh at me

Suuurre..... I'll believe that when Chaos stops accusing me of spamming.

they really were, they were supposed to go to MI
my duck eggs will take precedence over them though when they get here

hope they survive

I think they'll be fine.

I "may" have been performing unorthodox practices.

I "may" have been incubating and not turning eggs unless I candled.
The eggs "may" have been turned 5-7 times at the most.

I "may" have lost an equal amount of eggs but most were at the end when my humidity was down.

But still...pretty neat results.
I'll do a more concise experiment on my next hatch.

These are the burds.
I have an equal amount of chicks in my brooder as well but those chicks' eggs "may" have been turned close to once a day




I thought you had a turner???

in fact i have 2 turners, that have been frankensteined
BUT i was informed I was absolutely NOT allowed to use a turner for my call eggs so i am not using it right now
and the frizzles were shipped and some ACs are BAD

 

[Wickedchicken6]

so a turner can't be used for duck eggs?
I know nothing about duck eggs.

That's kinda cool.
Shipped eggs...yeppers I get that one...lol

 

[BullChick]

I use a turner for duck eggs.

 

[Chaos18]

Did the eggs hatch yet?

 

[DwayneNLiz]

most duck eggs its fine, but for calls to properly develop their cam they need to be on their side

no chicks yet chaos, but they were moving this morning

 

[BullChick]

Ohhhhh. So use a different turner. I have both kinds.
