i Had, not any more, i sold those off when i first hatched them back in last spring, lol
but i hope that these showgirl eggs are good, becouse these eggs are from teh same person, who actully has lavender , and isabela coloring.

what is isabela coloring?

I know in dogs, isabella is a white, white.
My white husky is a buff white because she isn't a bright white which is ok with me because buff whites in Huskys are rare.

Awww, Sarah's haven't started laying real well yet this time last year we had lots of runner ducklings. Runners usually have no problem on their own, we keep them moist with a fine mist from a spray bottle. If they are through the outside with beaks they should be out tomorrow for sure

I have not done anything special for them. They were incubated around 35% humidity. I put them in the hatcher yesterday. They are at 83% humidity. is that too high?

That sounds good. We actually run our bators pretty dry and only mist the eggs for the last three days, just so they don't stick trying to get out.

should I mist them? I usually do not open the last 3 days for chicks. have no idea what to do for ducks.

No, They should be fine with the humidity you have it at
