About two weeks ago I hatched out 7 ducklings 6 of whom are alive and growing well. The 1 ducklings has not grown a single inch, and is falling over and getting trampled. What do I do? She looks like she was hatched an hour ago she's so small and weak. I have electrolytes and only one heat lamp...
7 out of 9 hatched out successfully! 2 required help, but it was very simple and they are healthy, happy ducklings! The father duck passed down it's crested gene to 4 of the ducklings, and it's adorable! We have them on save-a-chick electrolytes and minerals for the time being. Thank you MGG so...
It on the belly button. There was a tiny bit of yolk left, but it seems to doing fine now. It can't walk and it seems very weak. Do I need to put it in a sock?
There is one that is not really moving and it hasn't pipped, but the 6 left are doing really well, very active. I'm hoping they hatch tomorrow! Thanks for your help and input!
I had an autopsy for a dead egg and it appeared to be wrapped in a sack fully developed. It was sad. Has this happened to you? And will the others be fine. They all seem to be working at the egg inside and moving. What was your hatch rate?
There is only 4 days until my duck eggs hatch and I'm super excited!! The candling is going very well, all are fertile and developed. BUT a friend of mine is asking me to hatch some of her guinea eggs and I've never done that before. Is there ANYTHING I can do to have a good hatch rate? I know...
Hi! I've been having great success with hatching, and it's become sort of a hobby. A friend of mine wants me to hatch some of her guinea eggs, and I've only ever hatched out ducklings. I know it's around the same incubation period, but are there any different procedures that will help me improve...
