Call duck egg tips for incubation!

[Hybridchucks]

Hi, right now I have a call duck egg in my brinsea incubator and i am on day 21 and on saturday its lockdown! YAY!

I have loads of questions!
What does the humidity need to be at on lockdown? How much niacin do I give to the duckling a day? What day should I supervise the duckling's first bath? That should be it for now, i will probably post some more questions later! xx thanks for all replys!!! xxx

depends on your location but mine did very well at about 35%

how does your AC look?

Thank you for your information. I've done this in past years but my last hatch was a bust. The The people here are great. Thank you

i locked down at 60-65% humidity
1 week old for first bath, make sure to have towels and maybe even blow dryer ready they get chilled very quickly (water-logged too)
i just sprinkled the brewers yeast on their food, i didnt measure it

Is the temp meant to be different with different breeds of duck?
