    Muscovy Hen not walking.........Good Update

    Muscovy sitting on eggs

    I am not sure how long she has been sitting but in the last couple days I havent noticed her coming out to eat or get water. Does this mean its getting close to them hatching? Should I put water and food near her?

    No progress or bad flashlight?

    Ugh I was excited until I watched the candling videos and saw obvious movement.....now I am kinda bummed but I am still hopeful that I am just not candling right or with a good enough flashlight. Nothing smells in the bator so I guess I will just wait and see.
