    They have starter feed and are eating that! I only did the sugar water last night with the smaller one with a dropper and then the big buddy got some this morning. I emptied it out and they just have the starter feed and fresh water! The bigger one is beating UP the little one... is that...

    Malpositioned/shrink wrapped duckling?! HELP!

    Good morning!!! They are!! I can’t believe it!! We have one out of the incubator in the brooder aka bathtub... under heating lamp, lots of frolicking room, wet hatchling food and water. The others are still in the incubator. No more yolk sacks but they have a bit of the shell stuff still...

    Malpositioned/shrink wrapped duckling?! HELP!

    They are doing really well!!! I’m still trying not to get my hopes up, but #2 is a wobbly little buddy, napping on and off but the second I open the incubator he wants to hop out of it! No yolk sack at all he is almost completely healed! And the other two are doing really well as well!! They...

    Malpositioned/shrink wrapped duckling?! HELP!

    Yes I just failed to calibrate my incubator and didn’t understand that importance from the start. That was my fault. I have to live with that. I’m doing my best to learn from each step of this... and I feel terrible that 3 have already lost their lives due to my initial negligence. Just...

    Malpositioned/shrink wrapped duckling?! HELP!

    Oh my gosh I’m so so sorry!! That sounds terrible!! My daughter actually asked me, because I did forewarn her that this may not work and they may all pass when we started this whole thing, and some may be born with defects, if any with defects could live.
