    Oh no I wouldn't personally suggest water canceling you can use a flash light at the top of the egg in a dark room to see the baby chick inside. Unfortunately it probably isn't going to hatch but you can check with a light to be sure and it will be easier on you when incubating to use a light I...

    Ducklings offgrid

    When I first started hatching eggs I was using a still air little giant incubator from tractor supply I never had a decent hatch rate with it when hatch ducks it was great for chicks though. I recent bought a hova bator and I've had a much better experience with it around 80% hatch rate with it...

    Ducks are a little tricky to hatch so I always set a bigger number usually 30 to 40 eggs. They do tend to be messier than chicks though but grow rather quickly.

    And I forgot to add chicks usually don't move as much when it comes hatching time as they rest a lot. Incubating and hatch eggs gives a whole new meaning to the words have patience lol it's so hard for me to just sit back an wait for them to do their thing I pace a lot

    Oh one of my fave! Are you locking them down on day 15? Bantam eggs hatch usually around day 19 (wasn't sure if you knew that I promise I in noway intended to be rude)
