Quote: We need to see a pic. Can he take a pic and mail it to you and you can post it? In the meantime keep duckling separate in the incubator with the humidity up etc, as Pogmobum said.

Should i stop turning the day 16 eggs, its an rcom bator and they will keep being turned every three hours unless i take the eggs out and put the cover underneath them. Theres only two so im nervous that the turning might hurt them if they are trying to hatch, plus if you ever decide to start shipping eggs pm me please and let me know

Quote: You said they are moving? As in wiggling the whole egg? They may be thinking about hatching then and you should stop turning them.

I will

I don't really have anything worth breeding with at the moment, but I have 2 Hyline roosters and 3 pullets, need to rehome 1 roo and I'm going to keep the other 1. Don't know if I'm going to breed with them. They're young still, about 2 months? I'm going to get rid of my bantam (Java X) roo and 2 of his wives this Friday. The other 2 wives are both broody. LOL

Ya the whole egg wiggles a bit i definitely know im not crazy now because i sat there for ten mins and saw then both do it lol i have never hatched bantams before and never saw movement this early thats why im nervous

Bantam eggs sometimes hatch early because they are so small. I had a bantam X hen once who's eggs always hatched on day 18. Bump up the humidity and stop turning.

Thanks, i'll keep an eye out for your future shipping business

It's going to be awhile yet! We need a place with more space so I can put some breeding pens together. But it's proving difficult to find a suitable property in this area.
