    Incubating Sebbie and Duck eggs

    Good Luxk- We had our 1st Peking Duck egg pip last Friday Night. For almost 24 hours I was on pins and needles. Because it had only pipped a small chip off its egg. It didn't break out until Sunday morning. I got my humidity up to about 70 for the last 3 days.
