Hi again, BYC community! I'm having some fear about whether or not I'm doing something wrong, and would love some validation and tips from the pros here that've successfully hatched duck eggs before.
So, for a bit of context here, I'm currently on day 25 of an incubation period, and am using a...
I have a call duck egg that showed significant moving up until day 18. I candled again on late day 22 and saw no movement at all, (maybe a flicker of movement, but unsure). I set it up for lockdown today on day 23 and did one last look, and zero moment. I am feeling quite defeated, and not sure...
When to go into lockdown? Egg #1 and 2 have been wiggling, and Egg #3 has been just no movement of any kind. Egg #1 & 2 are in an incubator together, and Egg #3 is in an incubator by itself. It's Day 25. We tried to candle them with a heat lamp ontop, and flashlight underneath, to keep the...

I was trying my first round of Call Duck eggs via an incubator, and after having them shipped in, and having to put wax on a couple cracks of two of them... I was feeling pretty good about the clutch. They went in officially on April 1st. Well the outlet that the incubator was plugged into...

Today is day 28.
One egg has hatched. It had multiple complications and desperately needed help out of the egg. She/he is completely fine now and healthy. Out of the egg since yesterday! Yay!
All 4 of the other ducklings in the eggs have been trying to break through for 2 days now.. I can...
Evening All,
I am just looking for some advice.
I have just received 3 eggs posted, and I have candled them to look at the condition of them.
The air sac appears to be slightly saddle shaped (having done some reading about them).
I am leaving the eggs for 24 hour to settled before placing...
