Chicknlove, thank you! the 3rd egg is now in the process of zipping and I'm expecting it to hatch by tomorrow evening :).
Group 2 eggs that were due the 20th have internally pipped. Idk what's up with this insane early hatching..
Looks like a 100% hatch tho!!
Here is a pic since they've...
3D it should be okay! I've had this happen before, we lost power right before lockdown, and it was summer so it was about 95 outside of the incubator.. I thought all was lost but amazingly I got 19 out of 24 to hatch!
3Dchicken, these eggs grew extremely quickly.. It's dont think I counted wrong :( ugh.
I might "cap " them ( crack a large chicken egg and duck tape it onto their egg to keep them and make an air hole...) I don't know...
RED ALERT!
Mallard duck eggs due the 18th and were supposed to have lockdown Saturday have pipped just now >.<
Was about to candle when I heard peeping noises, and then saw pips... Candled JUST to make sure and they have internally pipped and I see the beak....
Took incubator off the...
Candyman, congrats! They are so cute!
My lock down is Saturday and Monday, Unfortunatly/ fortunately I won't be able to be here when the group one ducklings are due (Tuesday) but I'll get back Wednesday, so hopefully they'll be about to hatch and I wont miss to much. Then I'll get to see the...
Congrats on lockdown everyone!! My lockdown is Saturday, I'm a little worried tho. I candled and I see little to no movement, and the incubator had a few high temps today... :(

3Dchicken, yeah it was from our chickens.. I have no idea how tho lol, I collect the eggs every morning, and it usually freezes at night, and our hens never set... Really weird!
Anyone know what day it could have been on??
I just prevented a really gross thing from happening, I was making cookies, and I usually crack the egg open right into the mixer, but something told me not to this time. Cracked the egg into a bowl, and turns out theres a little embryo inside . I'm so glad I didn't mix it into the cookie...
