Here my story,
I have 3 of these Brinsea Mini Advance Incubators, last year I used 2 of them twice and only got one or two ducklings to hatch at a time out of 7 eggs in each one. I fallowed the directions from the Brinsea Mini Advance quid and most eggs are fertile, but they die either half way through incubation or pips. The eggs were collected in the winter and non where laid that spring, I'm wondering maybe that's the problem to my unsuccessful hatching.

I'm getting 2 eggs a day now and I have 14 eggs at the moment, My Calls are finally laying their eggs in the spring and not winter lol so maybe I'll get a better hatch this time.

I want to know how you guys get awesome hatch rates for you Call duck eggs in your Brinsea Mini Advance? Any advice would be highly appreciated :)
 
I hatch muscovies and their eggs are larger than mallard eggs , so for a mallard/call duck I would recommend a 7 for turn angle set for every hour at 99 to 99.5 degrees faranheight or 36 degrees Celsius
 
I have Muscovys too, One Drake and four ducks. Yea I been hearing people say they set their turner to every hour, last time I did every 3 hours :/
