Charleston we have a Broody here!

So, yesterday i snuck into the duck house while her highness was in her personal bath-tub and tried to candle the eggs and took some pictures:

I can't see anything else but a black mass filling the egg and the air bubble. Does that look correct to you?

This is how she leaves her nest, carefully covering up everything:

It looked like this after i removed the blanket:

And this is her highness defending her bathtub:

What day and you don’t see any veins?

 

[WannaBeHillBilly]

Around day 19 - i don't know when she has exactly started to sit.
I haven't seen any blood vessels inside the eggs, in fact i haven't seen anything but a dark mass inside, but it wasn't very dark in the duck house. When it is dark i cannot get my hands on the eggs because Katy is sitting and she has developed sharp toe-nails…
I guess she will know if there is something wrong with an egg and kick it out, would she?

 

[Miss Lydia]

Maybe this will help.

I need to lure her out this evening and candle again when it is darker. To me her eggs looked like the pictures of day 20.

 

[Miss Lydia]

That's great hope you can get a good look tonight.

Katy is not going to be happy with her Houmaaan

Long sleeves, gloves and jeans should be enough protection
