That's a very successful hatch, especially being your first time, WTG!!! I have 6 Delewares in the bator now, along with 3 speckled sussex and 1 silkie egg, should all hatch Sunday hopefully!

Glad you liked the calendar, when I found it I thought it was the cutest thing and that everyone on here would enjoy it! Glad you joined our thread!!

Thanks, I'm enjoying the forum and looking at your silkies, they are beauties!

Awww such cuties! Those ducks sure can make a mess can't they! I learned that the hard way. They HAVE to play in the water all the time, their 1 goal in life is to empty that water container as fast as possible!

I raised ducks for years and many times the last one was weak. Depending on how hard he had to work to get out.
If you have polyvisol (w/OUT IRON) give him/her a drop or two then again later on in the evening.
a bit of sugar in his water will also help.

UGH! I have filled 2 1/2 trays of my bator only 2 1/2 left

I just received 15 Chinese Goose eggs (white & brown)
35 Bourbon red turkey eggs
&
14 mix pure's

So here are my two full trays!

1st full

2nd one

I could not believe how big a goose egg is! Its like squishing a baseball to egg shape

I really like how the wire racks are set up, so I can customize each tray

I really do have a plan! I have alot of my chicks presold ~ IF they hatch and all (I do plan on keeping 1 roo to 2-3 hens only)

Not the best pics, will get better later ~ What color? If you can tell already.
