    Advise for successfully incubating call ducks

    I picked up 7 call duck eggs and set them up in my incubator. I’ve heard call ducks can be really hard to hatch and typically need assistance when hatching. Looking for any and all advise from people who have experience with hatching call ducks. I appreciate the help :)

The last one seemed to be doing well. I had candled it on day 5 and saw some good veins. I was hopeful that at least one...
