Aw! You can take him out whenever. Now would be fine. I take mine out when they're still a little bit wet, so he's fine. Congrats!

What would happen any way? Late term deaths, early deaths, etc.

Um, no. Lol. They seem fine so far.

That's interesting. I had never heard that.

I set my chicken eggs a week into the duck's incubation so the chicks are on day 21 and the ducks are on day 28.

Really? Where'd you get that info? I've never heard that. I have ducks and chickens hatching right now.

Good luck!

Wow! You sure are busy! It's totally fine.

Yeah, try tonight in a dark room. Sorry, it's just too hard to tell when it's bright in the room.

If you post pics we can tell you. 😉

That's weird. Candling is the most reliable because you can physically see the chick. Also, welcome to BYC!

Water floods in through the pores and it blocks oxygen from going into the embryo. It's just very dangerous. It makes the eggs slippery and it's very easy to drop them also. The one time I trusted it I threw out what it told me were definitely duds, and they were not. That was the saddest thing...

Yeah. I despise the float test. It's so unreliable for viable eggs. Only use it for eggs for eating to determine how old they are.
