    Is there any hope for this Muscovy egg?

    tbh I don't really know the hatching date, this egg was the lone survivor of a nest that was made by a mother duck (who had begun to lay eggs circa December 14) in my backyard that got raided by predators at night. I put this egg in my incubator around the week of January 18th. The main problem...

    Is there any hope for this Muscovy egg?

    I've had this egg in my incubator for awhile and I thought it was gonna hatch, but now I'm not so sure...what do you think from the video above?

    Did my egg get blood ringed?

    Hey y'all. One week ago, I found what appears to be a muscovy duck egg in my backyard, so we tried incubating it with an incubator I had. However, a week in and I fear it may be a quitter. I just want to know, is this indeed the dreaded "blood ring of death" that means it's not going to...

    Is it okay to put this hatchling in the brooder now?

    Yes. The pekin's area is actually in the same cage where we keep the muscovy, just seperated by a divider we built that they can see through.

    Is it okay to put this hatchling in the brooder now?

    I only had one egg. I just found it by a park where a bunch of Pekin Ducks live and we got an incubator for it. We do, however, also have this month old muscovy duckling we rescued some weeks ago, so it's not going to be totally alone (though we're gonna keep them seperate for a bit, just to...

    Is it okay to put this hatchling in the brooder now?

    (made a thread about this in the other forum, but it didn't get any attention...) So this little pekin duckling just hatched yesterday, roughly around 9:30 am. I just took this video of it a few minutes ago. I was wondering if it's okay to go put it in the brooder we have set up, which has...

    My pekin duck just hatched. How long does it need to stay in the incubator?

    Title says it all. Just a few things, I live in South Florida, the room temperature is at 74, and this little one hatched out of its egg at roughly 9:30 this morning. So I'd like to know how much longer I have to keep it in there before putting it in a headed brooder.

    Does my roughly one month old muscovy duckling still need a heat lamp above it?

    Well we basically plan on keeping it until it's big enough to go out on its own. For the record, I live out on a lake house where we've been frequently feeding the wild muscovy ducks that live out there corn and pellets. They come up into my backyard and everything. So we're hoping that once...

    I have a Pekin duck egg that's on the verge of hatching

    Well, it's hatched now. So I just need to keep it in there for like two days before finally moving it out, yes?

    Does my roughly one month old muscovy duckling still need a heat lamp above it?

    Oh, I live in South Florida, and the room temperature is usually at 74.

    Does my roughly one month old muscovy duckling still need a heat lamp above it?

    Hey all. As I mentioned in the other thread, I've been taking care of this one abandoned muscovy duckling for the past month. We know it's basically about a month old at this point, considering we saw it hatch with its other siblings (their mother literally put her nest at the side of our...

    I have a Pekin duck egg that's on the verge of hatching

    I just checked the incubator and yeah, there's now a pip on the egg shell, so it's definitely coming out now. I lowered the temperature down from 37.5 c to 36.5 c, is that correct?

    I have a Pekin duck egg that's on the verge of hatching

    How do I change the humidity? Does it have something to do with the water?. I have 100ml of water in there.
