Here's one... This is not a call duck, but it is the one that was acting off when it was trying to pip internally. I could tell it was slowing down and wasn't gonna break the membrane, so I pipped it internally and externally and then let it sit for 48 hours. After 24 hours it wasn't peeping or opening it's eyes and it was barely moving, so I picked away at more shell and put it back. 48 hours later and it's now two days behind the others that were already in the brooder eating, pooping and drinking, so I peeled away the rest of the shell and put it back in the bator. The next 3-5 days it wouldn't open it's eyes, peep or even sit it, it just stayed curled up as if it was still in the shell.

@Amykins , that is a runner/muscovy cross.

Thanks everybody. If that doesn't make a person smile, I don't know what will!

Since these are my first ducklings, I have no idea... Will their feet/legs stay colored like they are? I have one with fully black feet, one with mostly black and a just a few light spots, this guy with about half and half, and the fourth one are almost completely light!

I love the feet.

Larcy, I ordered about 50-60 call duck eggs for my first hatch ever. I'm in desperate need of advice, they'll be here Thursday or Friday.
