I have 9 hens to my one Tom. Pure bred Ridleys
They have had extra light for close to three weeks, there first mating was 12 days ago. Is there anything more I can do to encourage them to start laying sooner
I have had this guy for a while and it’s worked great before. This time when I set it up for duck eggs, it’s hold temp fine c but beeps at me once in a while, it’s nothing to do with temp as I check and it’s where it should be

I have never seen -RM...
It’s around day 18-19 maybe more, I forgot to write down which day I put them under the hen. One if the other eggs had already piped in the air sack, so that’s my best guess in days.

I have a duckling that I had to assist it’s hatch, 48 hours after external pip. It is shaking it’s head back and fourth and has a little blue in its eyes, help I don’t want it too suffer.
i am currently incubating 5 duck eggs, one has what looks like a grey air sac, like the outside is turning grey just where the air sac is, the rest of the egg is white. Lots of movement , day 25. Has anyone had success with this type of discolouration before.
So this is my first time trying to hatch a double yolker, and I know the chances are very slim. Last time I candled the chicks were both moving. What can I do to maybe increase my chances.
Should I be worried or is this normal. They are moving and the humidity is up. This is my first ever duck hatch and I really want to make sure I get a few to hatch
It day 22 and I am really worried I might have made a big mistake. The air sacs arm to be a lot smaller then ones I find online.
Is it to small or am I just worrying to much. How would I increase it.
I have a broody mother hen with one two week old chick, they are separated from the main flock. Then I have a flock of 8 bovan, I rir, 1 mixed breed rooster. Those are my layers. I just added a 7, 9 week old chicks. So the whole flock is on grower/finisher feed. I was woundering if I can feed...
