Approx 7 days until hatch!

Yes and I don’t think it’s viable. It’s still in the incubator since today is technically day 28. But I’ve candled it and haven’t seen much to suggest it’s alive. Will probably give it until tmw anyway. But I’m super thrilled with 6. Originally started with 10 and never done this before so learned on the fly. 6/10 isn’t bad
Actually, that's a very successful hatch rate. 50% is avg with chicks and I believe its less with ducks. Most have goals for a 60% hatch rate.
 
Daily dose of ducklings while I ponder what breed mixes they might be and enjoy them while they are super tiny 🥰🐣🦆

4.5 weeks old!
Can’t wait to see them in another few weeks when they are more feathered. 3/4 yellows appear to be fawn/white runner mixes. The 4th yellow appears to be a white runner mix.
And the grays are turning out to be really cool too.

They are likely all mixes.
