Call ducks hatching!!!! Picture Added!

Unzippping too...Yay...well done - wont be too long now then.... Hope you manage to get some sleep tonight with all the excitement going on under the hen...
 
Awesome! I have had really good luck with broody hens too. I have hatched tons of duck eggs that way and virtually never had to mist when I did. Going that route, I have frequently had almost 100% hatches. I am building a new small coop right now just for the sole purpose of housing a few of my hens that are always going broody. That way I can "diversify" my duck eggs- some in the incubator and some under hens.
 
PIctures! I grabbed one of the little guys to snap some pics. I am going to let the hen have them for a while because otherwise she will try to go broody again, and she was on a nest before the call eggs got here in the mail. I want her to get her strength up. Plus she should have her reward for being such a good broody. Here's one of the babies!
