duck eggs

We have 4 wonderful, healthy Golden 300 ducklings that are 4 weeks old and need a new permanent home. Free to a good home. Please let me know if you’re interested! We’re located in South Jersey.

So I’m planning on incubating turkey and duck eggs in a few days and was wondering how some of you incubate them together?

I posted about a week ago that my Khaki Campbell had a nest of eggs but hadn’t seen her sitting on them.. well last night we seen her sitting on them. We have a male Pekin that she is with.. is it possible these are going to hatch?

We noticed these in the corner of their house.. we have a Pekin and a Rouen. Not sure how long these have been there. Will these hatch?

Hello :) I have a few hatching egg questions. First can you tell if an egg is fertilized by candling it ? What should I look for ?(Duck eggs if that matters.) second how long can eggs stay out unicubated before they can’t be hatched? I am not personally hatching eggs but we are giving some to a...

Hi, So this is my first time hatching duck eggs. I noticed one of the eggs had a hole in this morning it could have happened last night while I was sleeping but it seems to be in the wrong end. My air cells were a bit weird *being shipped even though I set them for over 24hrs) so I am not sure...

Sold my first dozen eggs...6 duck and 6 chicken. Woo-hoo!

Hey everyone! I am currently experimenting with incubating eggs. I currently have two in the incubator and they are about day 8. One of them looks good to me, but on this other egg here there's a dark circle in the middle. Is it just the embryo? I've looked at day by day egg candling and I...

Hey all! I have four ducks - two Pekins (one drake) and two Golden 300 Hybrids. It’s been nasty rainy here in the PNW for two days, so I stupidly let myself be lazy and not clean the run for two days. OF COURSE, I come out this afternoon to clean, and find FOUR eggs in a little nest. My these...

Hey guys! Just wanted to ask a question and see if I'm being paranoid 😅. I've got Indian runner duck eggs currently in lockdown. I've had stable humidity and temps the whole time. When I placed then in lockdown this morning, I added a tiny bit of water as the humidity had dropped when I opened...

My pair “Bonnie & Clyde” I think have laid their first egg together, I pretty darn sure it’s fertile but I really don’t wanna crack it open to find out, and advice on what I should do with my new duck egg? Leave where I found it? (By there swimming pool out in the open) Move it to “their”...

Hello there! I am on day 28 of incubating my ducks eggs. I have 7 eggs hatching in the next couple of days, due to a staggered hatch, but I had 2 eggs due today. Of the two, one hatched very very early this morning. The other one did not have a pip, and was not moving or peeping in response...

I have duck eggs that are 1 day past the 28 day due date. I can hear them squeaking but none have piped. How long do I wait? When if at all should I intervene?

“Betty” was clutching her eggs. I though she had stopped laying all together.

Hi everyone! This is my first go at ducks and having duck eggs. Last week, one of my female mallards flew away for a few days but has since returned. Upon her return, the male ducks began mating with her. Something that has not happened before. Today i went out to do my daily cleaning of their...

Hello and good morning! Today, I have a bunch of questions about breeding ducks. As some of you might know, I have 3 female ducks and a drake, and am expecting ducklings sometime in the future. Problem is, I don't know a thing about hatching or raising duckings! I need some help ASAP. Here are...

So this summer after some thought we decided to hatch duck eggs, we got them online , they survived the transport completely. No broken eggs no cracks. I candles before and after I started incubation. and they had time to set before I candles. How do they look so far. First pic is after settle...

I was reading the thread of people having allergies or food borne illness when eating duck eggs. Last week I ate a duck egg that I fried, after 2 eggs on different days I had nausea, each time it was worse. Then I decided it was about 3 weeks since I bought them through my farmshare so I decided...
