I'm in! I have a dozen duck eggs due to arrive the 1st week of April - Khaki Campbells & Silver Appleyards from
Celtic Oaks Farms. I am so very excited!!!
I also just started storing some of my Rouen's eggs, in case there are shipping problems. The drake is a Khaki Campbell, so they'll be KC/Rouen crosses, if I need to hatch any of them. My flock was ravaged by stray dogs (
at night, in their coop) a couple of months back, and I lost some of my best ducks and had to rehabilitate the survivors. It will be nice to rebuild the flock.
The incubator is out and ready--we put it through a 2-day test run to make sure everything is operational and ready. We'll fire it up on March 31st again to dial it in for the incubation. We are planning to hatch the eggs at my daughter's preschool, like we did last year. The teachers do a whole unit around ducks and eggs. It is pretty neat.
Happy Hatching Everyone!!
