CALL DUCKS ARE HATCHING!!!

[Amykins]

YAY...good news Wobbles is hanging in there! The vitamins are giving her/him a boost!

#3 has its safe hole now so I think that should give it some time to some work

Come on #3(gat a name yet?LOL) Wobbles needs a friend!!!

Well, Wobbles' full name is Wobbuffet, so I think I'll name the hatchmate "Wynaut". XD Oh my god, I am SO HAPPY right now. For a while there I thought I'd lost all of them!

Here's the final update video, Wobbles still hasn't gotten the knack of walking but s/he's an energetic lil' dude! When Wynaut hatches (fingers crossed!!) I'll move them together to the larger box. This one's just so I could keep a close eye on the bugger through the night. Speaking of which, Wobbs let me sleep for two whole hours! Isn't that generous! Crying all through the night, diaper changing, getting into absolutely anything and everything...yep, they're kids, all right.

OMG...ADORABLE!!! Thank you for sending a video...sooooo cute! He is eating and drinking which means he will continue to get stronger!!! and LOL...welcome to parenthood and the lack of sleep that comes with it! Hopefully with the vitamins, he will get the leg thing figured out. And in a day or two he should have a friend. Soooooo glad that he made it and you have fluffy love to enjoy

Will keep checking in to see how Wynaut is progressing. You have Lacrystol watching over this little one so you are in VERY good hands

Hehe yeah, she's my guardian angel. <3 Wob is now able to run and walk as long as he's on a flat surface! He still occasionally flips over on his back though. It's so cute to see him wiggle his feet in the air trying to correct himself.

The egg hasn't externally pipped but it's rocking and rolling up a storm in the bator so I know the 'ling is good and strong!

Okay, just ONE more dose of cute overload:

Oh...sleepy Wobbles! He/she is getting stronger and making progress...YAY!!! And your other egg is on its way to hatching! Wobbles should be pretty stable by the time your other hatchling comes along

That rocking egg is getting itself ready to hatch

Hi Amykins! Checking in to see how Wynaut is progressing and how Wobbles is doing? Update?

Hi Amykins! Checking in to see how Wynaut is progressing and how Wobbles is doing? Update?

Wobbles is doing great! Wynaut is still in the shell, no external pips. It began hatching two days late, I guess it's taking its sweet time doing the deed. Send a PM to Lacry asking how long I should wait until I attempt an assisted hatch.

Good to hear about Wobbles! Enjoy him/her because they grow so fast! Lacrystol is pretty good about checking in on the thread to, so you are in good hands

Hopefully by tomorrow Wobbles will have a friend and you will have 2 little quacklings making you lose sleep! I decided today to let my broody hatch some chicks...ordered Bantam Cochin eggs for her that should come Thursday! So excited! I have never hatched with a broody so all new experience for both of us....LOL

 

[Amykins]

I don't think I'll ever hatch non-bantams again, I'm just in love with their teeny-ness! Best of luck with your hatch, pleeeeease keep me posted!

Little fuzzy butts <3 Part of me thinks a broody would be just slightly less stressful than a bator, if only for the fact that the hen takes care of everything and you can't hover constantly!
