    Zipping 'wrong way'

    I added more water underneath and wet the sponge inside (all through a straw lol) I've come home tonight to a cheeping egg. When I've looked just now there is the tinyest pip so small I want sure if it was a bit of fluff. It's really rocking around and alternately peeping and tapping. I am...

    Zipping 'wrong way'

    So all three that pipped last night stopped zipping. I can't check the humidity on my bator but can only assume it was too low. I unzipped each one and then put them back. All three have now hatched. I've got three more still in but the are now late on so don't know if they will or not

    Zipping 'wrong way'

We have some ducklings hatching now and this is the first time we have got this far (due to a power cut last time) I'm worried that the duckling is going the wrong way and is drying out as there is some discolouring. I am trying not to open the incubator...

    Double air sack and cracked egg (duckling still alive)

    Thank you for your reply. I can't see the link although it could be how it shows up on my phone. It's definitely the temperature that caused it it just started rising massively one afternoon and we could not get it down. We have managed to stabilise it now but obviously too late for the others.

    Double air sack and cracked egg (duckling still alive)

    So this week my little ducklings were due to hatch. Saw movement heard peeping and then nothing. I candled the eggs and saw no movement and when I opened the eggs they had internally pipped and then died. Out of the 10 that made it to lockdown 4 weren't any good and had died earlier on. Four had...
