Ok so I've been totally freaking out over my duck eegs. Temp has been a bear to get regular, and I just knew for sure I killed them when it jumped to 103 for a couple of min. I decided to try and candle them even though I knew after only three days I wouldn't see any viens. Although I had remembered reading somewhere here that you can see a bullseye around 3-4 days signaling a developing embryo. I HAVE BULLSEYES!!!!
I was SO FREAKED OUT!!! I'm not totally screwing up!!! YAY!!! Then, I was laying infront of the bator watching the temp to make sure it would go back to 99-100, no more or no less, after turning them and my 4 year old daughter (Lizzy) came and looked at it and said "Are they gonna crack?" I said "No, not yet they have to sleep in the incubator for a few days first. Then they can come out of the eggs" Then she said in a really cute sweet way, "They gotta sleep in the inkybaker?" I lost it the way she said it was so funny!
