Urgent! Weird sounds inside duckling! Is this normal?
Oh wow I didn’t consider that - it was just so loud and random, it had me worried! -
Urgent! Weird sounds inside duckling! Is this normal?
There’s these really weird sounds I can hear inside the duckling, I’m not sure what to do as it’s my first time hearing it, it’s incredibly loud, I don’t know what’s going on, is it just an upset stomach? Can’t hear it from the others. She’s a female (sexed) called duckling, I’m not sure how... -
Are these call ducklings deficient in something?
Oh it actually says it’s available for me - I can’t find bobs red meal though probably cuz of where I’m based! Ordered it though, it should be on its way! In terms of for emergencies what would you recommend me to get? Like for a duck first aid box as most of the things people recommend me... -

Are these call ducklings deficient in something?
I have five ducklings and some of them walk with their feet turned inwards and often stand with their feets on top of each other, do they have niacin deficiency? They’re call ducklings - have been eating duckling crumbs and quite a few mealworms since they love them so much so I end up spoiling... -
Shipped call eggs help!
Alright I’ll stop wetting them! It’s not humid at all where I live and probably the same where the eggs came from? I’m not too sure honestly! I’ve lost an egg, it was one of the more promising ones at that, the veins suddenly went almost completely. I’m giving it another day, but if I see no... -
Shipped call eggs help!
Should I increase the humidity in my case? I do have a calibrated hygrometer and temperature (off by 0.5C and 1%) so they’re pretty accurate. I’m just mainly worried for the one that seems like a mass of veins. Had a failed hatch the last time with only one hatching so I’m hoping these four... -
Shipped call eggs help!
Hi, I’ve been incubating some call duck eggs - shipped them in and of the 14 only 4 developed and made it to today.they have about 10 more days left and I’ve been trying to limit my interactions with the egg, candling and wetting every other day and I’m worried about two in particular, one with... -
Is tilting one side enough for this incubator?
Oh ok that’s good to hear! I’ll leave them be till day 5 then! -

Is tilting one side enough for this incubator?
I had some call duck eggs shipped and wanted to find a way to rotate these without interfering too much and affecting overall humidity and temperature but was wondering as the rotator is in because I have one egg lying down that’s intact and well, would tilting one end be enough? I can’t really... -
Which temperature reading do I trust? The calibrated one or the three non calibrated ones?
Yeah the two calibrated ones were close together lifted off the ground using one of the humidity calibrated hygrometer (the hygrometers were placed at different ends) - I’ve had to increase the temperature to 102F to get the glass thermometer to show 37.5C but the digital ones show around 39C. I... -
Which temperature reading do I trust? The calibrated one or the three non calibrated ones?
Even though three different readers are saying similar temperatures to each other but different to the glass thermometer? -
Which temperature reading do I trust? The calibrated one or the three non calibrated ones?
Yes - I calibrated a hygrometer that also reads temperature and a glass thermometer same ice water at 50/50 ice and water. And the other two hygrometers were only calibrated for their humidity using the salt-in-a-container test (idk what the name is for that lol) -
Which temperature reading do I trust? The calibrated one or the three non calibrated ones?
So, I calibrated the humidity of two hygrometers and temperature for a glass thermometer and a hygrometer (all different brands etc.) When I was calibrating, the glass temperature showed it was off by 0.5C. For the hygrometer however, it never went below 12.5 (it’s a digital one with a probe)... -
Help! Air cell’s too small but duckling’s still Alive trying to pip!
I’m not too sure, in the morning I took him out and water flew from his nose, so maybe it is? I think he sneezes - and im pretty sure he hasn’t, he spends his time under the heater, I can’t say for when I was sleeping but from the moment he hatched till early morning he didn’t really drink or... -
Help! Air cell’s too small but duckling’s still Alive trying to pip!
Just found out the duckling is a boy! Vent sexed the little one -
Help! Air cell’s too small but duckling’s still Alive trying to pip!
Is it normal for a duckling to have water come out of its nose? The duckling hasn’t eaten and only drank earlier on in the day when I showed it where the water was but hasn’t since, and it keeps making this sound and there’ll be a droplet of water around its nose? -
Help! Air cell’s too small but duckling’s still Alive trying to pip!
Hopefully! Hasn’t eaten yet, I mix up fresh mash every couple of hours for the duckling when it’s ready to eat
