Thank you for your support. I just cried for a little while, was going to bury them in the garden, but can't see much as it's late, so I'll wait till tomorrow morning. I should be proud of myself though for helping 9 out of the 11. Never done anything like this before. I managed to help them...
Thank you, I think I will do this. Its well over 30 days so it's either not made it or its not coming out. If its alive but fully grown duckling can't I just leave it in the incubator without the bag. Why would the memberane still be attached? Xx
No I didn't see that. Although I didn't candle them near hatching. Also when the others hatched there was some residue inside. Could it possibly be that? All the ducklings are doing well eating and drinking.
Hi there everyone,
I've been looking after duck eggs which were abandoned, 9 out of the 11 have hatched a few days ago 🙏🏻 these last two I'm not sure what to do. From the photos does anyone know what's happening or have any advice xx
Thank you all,
Heidi💖
Hi there, just wondering what the outcome is. I have a similar situation with two of my 11 duck eggs. The rest have hatched a few days ago and I'm worried about these two
Thank you,

Hiii,
Thank you so much for your message 😊🙏🏻 I've had to Google what TSC is - and it's a big shop with so many pet supplies!! (I need to research about this store if there's one near me - Norfolk) Oh, and how bad I did not know what a Pekin duck was, but now I do 😉 thank you! Xx
I think that...
That joke made my day 😂 - You've definitely been waiting to use that one 😉
Yeah I have started looking online about what to do, and think today I shall write a maybe list 📝 any suggestions?
There's currently 11 eggs, so fingers crossed. They're fighters 💪🏻 😉
Xx
Oh I'm so so excited 🙈 although I must be realistic... I am trying my best to help them though, that's All I can do xx
I haven't even started on thinking what to do if they do hatch!
Thank you for your reply! I shall up the humidity 😊 I have been turning them every few hours as I am not sure how old they all are. Currently have been on 55-70 humidity, although it's hard keeping it steady. Seems maybe with the veins and half dark half light maybe like 18 days... 🤷🏼 What...
Hi there,
Thank you for your reply. I don't remember seeing it when I initially placed them into the incubator. But tonight I have noticed some veins when I put a torch near one of the eggs. So does this mean that it's alive. I read online something about an air sac but still have no idea.

Hi there everyone 😊
I'm completely new to caring for Duck Eggs!! - A Duck laid 14 in our garden and then a cat killed one and scared the mother away :( So I've decided to look after them. They have been in the incubator I bought for them roughly two days, and I've noticed a little crack on one...
