One of the eggs is trying to hatch out, since this morning probably noticed about 9am. Do I need to intervene and help at any point, if so after how long? I know ducks can take a while to hatch outs
Sorry for all the questions I just want to do everything I can to get these two to hatch.
Lockdown is tomorrow, iv candled one last time tonight to make sure and still seeing movement in both, one more than the other but seeing movement still.
No internal pipping, should I continue to check till...
Brilliant thank you. I don’t remember the air cell being much bigger than this last time so I’m assume the duck stopped growing around now. I’ll keep and eye on them and put them into lockdown on Thursday x
It hard to get decent pictures and didn’t want to leave them on the light too long. These are day 22 so they look ok? Seeing lots of movement in them x
Thanks your help. I just over worrying as I don’t want to lose them at the last minute again. We are day 22 today. I’ll try get a picture later of what they currently look like. Xx
Hi All, just looking for some help, maybe.
This is my second go at duck eggs I lost my last two before lockdown.
We are on day 21 and have two good ducks egg and seeing plenty of movement. Should I candle then check everyday or wait now till lockdown?
What’s the best for the humidity to be on at...

So I just checked again, left it on the light a little longer to adjust my eyes lol and can definitely see movement. Should I put it into...
Iv bought a new thermometer and to check the humidity so hopefully that helps the next ones I try.
I think the fact they were a attached the egg sac and looked so formed 😭 I might try chicks instead x
I cracked one as still no movement at all or change in eggs now for days, they looked almost grown but two had died 😭😭
This was first time doing this I’m sad they made to so far and this happened
Not seeing any internal pipping yet. I don’t have a thermometer to double check the temperature inside, but incubator is saying 37.5.
Iv put them into lockdown now at what point should I check them again as Iv read not to open too much during lockdown.
I’m stressing they’ve stopped processing 😭
no nasty smells, just looked one more time before locking them down, my parents thinks he seen some movement.
Does this egg look ok for day 25? I’m worried they stopped processing
Hi, I have 4 duck eggs in my incubator, all looking the same but I’m not seeing any movement, should I be worried?
Shall I wait till tomorrow eve to candle again before lock down or should I just trust the process and continue?
Iv read a few other threads and so many people see movement by...
