Very sad to say they didn't make it one duckling was gooey and the other was far to weak to get out on time. He had been trying too long..I'm so annoyed at myself for not helping him the last night I heard him crying and rocking. But I didn't know he was struggling. Thanks tho.

Thank you so much for your advice.Duckling gone quiet today still no sign of an attempt to hatch. I will read all on that link and see if the poor things are still alive. Then I may have to assist. As it's day 40 I fear they are having problems. I suppose I can only learn from my mistakes and...

I forgot to mention my ducks are free range with no pens or anything. We are so lucky on the island we live we have no foxes or near anything to harm out babies. :)

Hi thank you so much for your advice it's helped a lot. I will check out the link. I did think my humidity was too high. I will lower it gradually. I am shocked the eggs survived a Ferry journey and the post. I will keep you updated on babies. I'm just hoping they will be ok.

Thank you I'm here in the Isle of man.
