    mallard ducklings hatching

    SO IT APPEARS I HAVE 1 MORE EGG THAT HAS PIPPED, IT PIPPED INTERNALLY SUNDAY, NO EXTERNAL PIP AS OF TODAY. 3 DUCKLINGS HATCHED. THE OTHER 12 EGGS HAVE NOT PIPPED. I ORDERED THE EGGS FROM STROMBERGS. I CANDLED THEM AND THEY APPEARED ALL THE SAME. IS THIS BAD THAT THEY HAVENT PIPPED YET?

    mallard ducklings hatching

    one more question. I have a powder supplement i ordered( ) to add to water. And my brooder is large(around 5ft x 5ft). We are in Louisiana but still getting some cold nights. Would I be better to keep them indoors in a large plastic container with light before putting them outdoors.

    hatching mallards

    i have three ducklings today. The second ducklings seems more sluggish? I read i should leave the hatched ducklings in incubator for 48 hours before moving them, thoughts??? I dont want to open the incubator as I still have 12 eggs in the bator. Do u leave them all in until they all hatch...

    Humidity increasing

    Thanks sooo much. I have all water out and still showing 70% humidity. We live in the south, I have no idea if that is causing it. Getting a hygrometer tomorrow.

    Humidity increasing

    i just put my hatching eggs in incubator. Humidity was 65 and now up to 76. Should I just give it some time or try to get some of the water out of the bottom. I am a newbie and don’t want to harm the eggs.

    Mingling mallard ducklings with half grown muscovies

    I am thinking of putting my 6 week mallard ducklings in fly pen with 12 week old muscovies. The muscovies are so much bigger and I'm worried they may Harm the mallards. I am new to al this and want some insight before I do it! tIA
