Call Ducks Finally Hatched

400


ALL FIVE! All perfect! I couldn't be happier! :)
 
Okay, it's been about 12 hours since egg #2 pipped...yes, I've been awake for that long. Should I try to chip away a tiny part of the shell above the air cell once I can no longer see veins in there anywhere? I haven't candled them since this morning when I confirmed that egg #1 had passed away, and the veins were for sure getting lighter, but were still present as of 9:00 this morning. Guh, the hardest part about hatching call duck eggs is knowing when, or if, you need to intervene!

Baby four is still not up yet, head still down, haven't been able to hold himself straight up. I hope he pulls through soon, he is able to poop or at least pea, I know that because as i was cleaning his belly button, he decided to let loose. LOL

I found an egg outside abandon from the momma call so I grabbed it and brought it in, I can see it has already internally pipped so he should be breaking out soon...
Sorry you're going through this... I just went through something similar with one of mine, which is why I started the intensive supportive care thread.
