Setting eggs July 6th. Need some hatching buddies. Lets have some fun!

They are all three out. All had to be assisted. That was NOT easy. Lol
I was a wreck last night thinking I was going to lose one. The third one is still in the incubator resting. He was finally free this morning. He is very very tired. I'm still waiting to see if he makes it, but he looks good so far.

These are my first ducks. They will live at my father-in-laws' house on four acres when they are bigger. We are building the duck house and pen this weekend. The duck section has lots of info too! But I'm new to all of ths as well. I've been reading everything I can find.

First time EVER incubating eggs. Used a homemade incubator made out of a fish tank. Worked GREAT!!!!!!! I put 4 eggs in and got 3 chicks. the last egg did not develop. not bad for first time, 75%. 3 out of 4 eggs. They are Barred Rock X BBR Game Hen. they hatched on day 19, 20, and 21

They are adorable! When I was a kid, I remember my mom hatching out eggs in a bean pot. Homemade incubators can work so well sometimes!

I had ducks and chicks of the same age living together for about three months. The ducks were much bigger early on. They all got along, but were together from a couple of days old.
