I got 4 eggs from my cousin that owes a egyptian duck, goose, (not sure). And he said he had them for 1 week but he says he isnt sure. I put them in a homemade incubator (I'm getting a good incubator soon). I candled the eggs but I can't tell. I can send more pictures if anyone needs them.

Also interested in mottled Houdan hatching eggs.
I live in Pa and have fallen in love with Cream Legbars. I was thinking about getting a dozen hens and a rooster from a reputable hatchery and selling the fertilized eggs to make a little extra cash to support my hobby. Do I need to get NPIP certified, and how do I do this, if I am doing this on...
Hi, I have an Aseel hen paired with a non-Aseel, mix breed rooster. Aseel tails, that of hens to be specific, are not erect like those of most other breeds, and so when my rooster mates with her, the tail remains downward facing.
I wonder if my rooster is going about his business correctly. I...
So here is the scoop,
I have one broody hen who is amazing at sitting on eggs. She is currently not laying eggs and just sitting on other eggs from different hens. I have two roosters in my flock. Obviously, I always knew fertilized eggs were a possibility BUT I discovered my first fertilized...
Recently, I purchased some very nice Rosecomb hens and am getting them a rooster in a few weeks. I was lucky enough to get to show these ladies at Fair this year. However, they are "old" birds (about a year old) and their wing feather tips were broken and their tails was a bit frayed. They...
For those who don't know, I recently had a very young pullet go broody. As she is an Asian BLACK, I call her my Emo Chick. (Quit rolling your eyes. That's funny!)
I'm putting under her tonight, after midnight, 12 eggs of mixed heritage so her set will start officially on 01 October.
Egg #1...
I'm considering hatching a fertilized white call duck egg this spring. I live in Connecticut and I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find an egg either online or nearby (CT, NY, MA, RI). If any online stores have a minimum order, it needs to be 2 at the highest because I can acommodate...
I have a flock of 5 to 7 month old pullets. THey are Black Copper Marans and Speckled Sussex. They are all cooped at night, but I'm very lucky to somehow be getting away with free-ranging by day while we are finishing the coop run (several months in the going, because, ugh, life).
Question...
I have always done this in the spring ... Ms Specklepants has been broody for a week and I've been trying to persuade her out of this state (already have 7 hens and not really looking to grow the flock), but it is breaking my heart to see her perseverance and I'm starting to be inclined to help...
Hello! I have a Broody hen that seemed quite annoyed with me sneaking some fertilized eggs under her. She scooted over one nest box for the night... but the next day she got with the program.
My question is, how long are the fertilized eggs viable when not being incubated or kept warm under a...
