He won't stop peeping and he rolled the eggs and has now learned how to STAND ON TOP OF THEM! Its starting to get a wee bit annoying.

Put the Ancona duck eggs into lockdown (end day 24) as they were starting to internally pip. Pretty sure I have 1 dead one out of 4 but I just marked it & left it in just in case.

Okay, I’m admitting to still having a steep learning curve to hatching eggs…by asking this question. When you are candling your shipped to you eggs—how do you determine the air cell is detached or intact? When I candle the eggs, I don’t see air cells anywhere? Even in non-shipped eggs, so I’m wondering if I don’t know what to be looking for? And I can’t find good examples? I see the yolk move around…but no obvious air cells until day 3-5…I feel like Rachel on Friends looking for her baby on the Ultrasound! Everyone else sees it but I don’t Anyone have good pictures of a candled egg on Day 1 from a shipped egg with an intact vs not air cell? TIA!

The second hatch of this march ended up few days ago. 12 babies hatched out of 13 fertile eggs.

The older ones are almost one month old and thriving very well. The only problem is that they all look boys to me lol... We will see in few weeks.
