Call Ducks Finally Hatched

It was a long sleepless night but everything went as plan, the little guy hadn't absorbed his veins yet, but after a few hours, he was ready for the next procedure. He a trouper. LOL.. now we the wait is on, he needs to be out and standing within the next two days. But he seemed pretty strong so I have no worries.

I was getting worried when my phone died during and her phone wouldn't send over pics, then her phone wasn't sending text. then pics took for every threw email. It was a CRAZY strange freaky night. LOL

Its was a night that if everything could go wrong, IT TRIED. But we OVERCOMED IT ALL. WOOOO HOOO

Now the others should POP out a little quicker.. WOOOO HOOOOOO

NOW IT'S MONSTER ENERGY DRINK TIME. HAHAHAHA

Lol yes sorry, we had to go every two hours. I believe it was around 3-4AM that we got him out of the shell? LOL thanks again for that Lori!!!

He is resting, almost has the shell completely off so I will get a picture when he does. Another had externally pipped last night and he seems to be making progress so hope he'll come out on his own!!
You will need to take a wet qtip and rub just the EDGE of his shell, do not go into the shell, then lay him back down with his feet at the bottom of the incubator. sometimes the shell will stick to there bodies and they will struggle and struggle but not stronge enough to break through. So by wetting the edge losens it up and BOOM off they go....
 
More sad news for me, I lost my two Momma duck babies. I believe this time is was my incubator, the readings are off. GRRRRRRR

So I have no more ducks and looks like sassy will be growing up with some chickens. OH BOY. Yesterday I put a swimming pool in with her, I tried to let her go swimming in the sink, She just SCREAMED, she did not want to be without her chick friends. LOL

So I put the pool in the broody box, SHE RAN AROUND THAT THING LIKE HER BUTT WAS ON FIRE. OMG, she was sooooo excited. Now she's trying to teach the chickens how to use it. YEP, they keep stepping into her pool acting like it's something they are suppose to do. It's not deep enough for them to drown and it comes out each night but just the craziest thing that Sassy is teaching them..

GOOD.
 
Have you guys taken a look at my website? I really would appreciate the input. I added the 2nd method of hatching and another page called Definition. I'm wondering if I need to add any more information.

I was able to fix it so that when you roll over certain words it takes you to the definition page to give you that meaning. Believe it or not My son actually helped me with that LOl.

Awww. Darn that sucks about the eggs :( Sorry to hear that

I bet Sassy is loving it. My niece named my little one Lily. She loves the water. No pool but she tries to climb in her water
