    Hi, I found this thread a few days ago and its been really helpful. I'm in day four of incubating my first ten call duck eggs ever, and its been really hard trying to find all the acurate information. I think I have all the basics down at this point, but is there anything That might help that...

    Any advice for call duck and/or pekin duck eggs?

    I've hatched chicken eggs before, but I've never tried duck eggs. I'll be getting the eggs in a few days. I've heard that its a bit different than chicken eggs and I certainly don't want to mess it up. Any advice on hatching duck eggs, call ducks in particular, would be greatly appreciated...

    Chick with a hurt wing

    I don't know how it happened, but I'm fairly certain one of my chicks hurt its wing. It's about one month old and I have it separated from the others. I'm not sure if its broken or cut or something, but if you lift up the wing, there's a little bit of dried blood. If I pick it up and force it...

    Very young chick, sick or not?

    I bought a chick from the store yesterday and it seemed fine at the store, but when I got home all it did was sleep. All the others were sleeping too, so I let it be. Today, it is still sleeping while the others run around it. When I pick it up, I can roll it over and pet it and walk around with...

    Oh my goodness, everybody is so nice here! I'm going to wait until I know if its a boy or a girl first before I name it. For know I've just been calling it Littles because it's so tiny!

    Well, I opened up the egg and it didn't make it, but at least I have the one chick!

    She has five toes, they're just blocked by her body. :) I put her back in the incubator just for the night and she went to sleep and she doesn't peep to awfully much when I hold her. Is it normal for her to peck her feet so bad? When I went to sleep I knew she was pecking her feet like they had...

    I've been keeping a calendar for the days exactly. I put the eggs in the incubator Thursday November 22, Thanksgiving Day, at about noon. Even if the egg doesn't make it, I still have, at least for now, the one that did hatch. It's walking around and won't stop cheeping while everyone is trying...

    I looked inside, and I can see the little developed baby. Its got all its wet fuzz and everything. The membrane is very tight around it so I put some warm water on it and put it back in the incubator.

    Even If the egg doesn't go well, at least I still have the chick. I think she got a little banged up in the fall because she still can't walk yet, but she tries her hardest. She's so tiny, and until this afternoon she's just hanging out in the incubator, waiting on her buddy.

    Here is a picture of the damages. You can't see it, but there are a lot of cracks all over the egg. I raised the humidity to the right amount, so I can't see the veins anymore. The shell ripped a hole in the membrane and I haven't seen anything moving in it.

    I really need some fast advice on this stuff!

    I can still see veins in the egg, but, upon closer inspection, I don't think its a place where it was pipping. I think the egg broke and some of the shell happened to fall away. There is a rip in the membrane but I don't see a beak, so I assume it was from a shell peice. Theres still no sound or...

    It's doing alright. It's just sleeping a lot and trying to walk. I'm more worried about the one in the egg.

    I really need some fast advice on this stuff!

    No, I dont hear any cheeping but I can see where the other chick started to poke through (the membrane on the inside is still there, so I don't think it was the fall). When I shine a light on it, I can see something inside but, like I said before, there is no movement that I'm noticing. I don't...

    Oh my gosh! I came home and the incubator was knocked on the ground and the peices of it were everywhere! Somebody opened my door after I left for school and the cat knocked it over when she heard the chicks hatching. One chick is hatched and it was still a little wet when I found it. It's not...

    I'm starting to hear cheeping! I don't see any holes where it's starting to come out, but at least one of the eggs is loud and proud!

    Should I ad water and raise the humidity now, or should I wait and see until the eggs start hatching?

    These are the last pictures before lockdown; day 17! Only three more days, and I'm sure it's going to be a very long three days.
