My Call duck just hatched 4 ducklings on her own over the past 3 days. She left her nest last night and moved to another spot, leaving the other 9 eggs. Two of them smelled rotten, but 3 of them looked like they needed more time. I put the 3 under her which she is still laying on. At this stage how can I tell if they are good or bad? I will take pictures of my new ducklings when I have a chance.

They would need to be candled with a bright flashlight to see if they're still moving and alive inside the egg. She may have just moved because some were rotten. If she's still sitting on the others then I would just leave her for a few more days to see if any others hatch. 2 of the 10 that my broody just hatched were late comers (2 days after all the others). I have 20 babies now and another 3 broodies sitting on about 2 dozen eggs total. I didn't think calls were all that broody but man, mine sure are lol. Good luck with your babies and remaining eggs!

What do you guys reckon on her wings? They were both suffering with slipped wing!

Here are some pictures of my baby Call ducklings. The other eggs never hatched so I ended up with 5 healthy babies.

The black one is 24 days old today.
The others are 25 to 26 days old. The first picture is of the whole family! My drake, Zippy, has been really nice to his babies and allows his black baby to boss him around.
