well, I have been really happy with the fact that they have all started off until at least day 10 except for ONE for each batch! (1/29 and 1/38)...this is exciting because I do sell them fertilized and can do so with somewhat certainty if I am seeing these results at home as well as I hatch for a farm (Pekins) so I also really need to make sure that my drake/hen ratio is working out so I am excited about that. The amount that actually hatched after the fertile ones took off, would be 19/28 so that is..... WOW...I too must be bleary eyed..I said 50% before, BUT, clearly that is not the case...I need to calculate that so that would be about 68%...am I doing that correctly?

So, 19 hatched. So it would be 19/28= hatch rate
and my fertility rate would be 28/29...which is really good right?

The ducklings are off to their new farm as of yesterday. The people are very happy with our relationship....The thing that I learned while doing this is that, there is no way that the big hatcheries would have time to deal with the last 6 in the way that I did...there is no way. But, I ended up with 6 extra ducklings with a little TLC...
 
so im so bummed my remaining 8 eggs that were supposed to hatch last thursday all DIS (dead in shell) 5 of them had even absorbed the yoke
