Without a picture it's going to be difficult to tell what this is. Check this out and follow the steps to post one, there is even a video showing how to do it:

Thanks for the tag OP here started another thread in the Hatching section too. WV and I have also been asking questions there, you guys might want to pop over. Maybe we can get everything in the same place. Would be easier that way, for sure.

It's it for ducks

First time on this site so I am probably all over the pages... but so far I LOVE your answer... I did lower temp but don't know where I should have humidity it's been 70.

70 sounds perfect for lock down. Once banty sees that I called her she'll be right over. She's one of the best on hatching. Where do you have the thermometers in the bator? Are they center of the egg in height?

Yes..

Yes..

You're running 102.5 center of egg and it's still alive??? I'm confused.


ETA: sorry to still post on this thread, but I have no clue which one is the main one.

I have so much going on to take pics about the brown splotchy egg...but as of now my temp is 100.2 and humidity is 71%

Notice a brown looking spot on egg but i candle egg to make sure duckling was still alive and saw movement, worried...also I have a LG incubator what temp should I lower it for lock down and what should my humidity be at...

Is the brown spot very circular or oval? And does the air cell area look "off" to you?
